Ace for fledgling card-tricksters !, 06 Jul 2001
Before buying this book, I was an absolute novice at card/coin tricks! I am now able to perform a number of tricks that look impressive. This book is well structured, with good diagrams.
Magnificent!, 12 Jul 1999
This book is an excellent guide to those who wish to put on magic shows or just make friends ask you, "how the heck did you do that". While some of the props you have to make yourself, most of these tricks can be done with everyday objects. It also allows you to add your own creativity to the tricks. A great book!
Nicely explained and great for beginners, 16 Nov 1998
This book is great for those wanting to learn easy to moderately difficult card and magic tricks.

The BEST Coin-Magic Book, 18 Apr 1999
This is the best coin-magic book I have ever read. The tricks are ridiculusly simple, but the audience remains mysified, and the text is absolutly hilarious. Within less than a day I was able to do at least three tricks. In fact, when I did them in front of my family, the tricks looked pretty impressive - even if I do say so myself. Next time I'll charge 'em. I'd recommend this book to any one, any age, who likes to astound their friends, family, or even their worst enemy.
A must-have for kids and magicians alike!, 14 Nov 1998
Even if the cool double-sided quarter hadn't been included with the book, the book would still be great. This book shows how to palm a coin, do a Bobo Pass, a French drop, and more! Anyone who wants to be a magician, get attention, or just have fun will love this book. The equipment is easy to obtain and the instructions are easy to follow. IT IS A GREAT BOOK!

Great book as long as magnets do not break, 22 May 1999
The book was great and inspired my kids to learn about magnets. The best part is that the book introduced magic that they could do easily. The book was easy to understand with graphics that attracted kids. The only problem is that the magnets broke easily if dropped. Three of the five doughnut magnets broke within the first day of use.

Great magic without the tears, 09 Jan 2001
Paul Gordon clearly believes it's not necessary to have double-jointed fingers and a photographic memory to do high quality card magic. He describes his magic as 'doable' and it is just that! He then goes on to prove it in well written, simple to follow explanations in Nocturnal Creations. If you've got a basic grounding in card magic then this work is your natural next step to performing startling, professional ledgerdemain.

Few illustrations, writing too small and condensed. Not suitable to be read directly by children under the age of 12! Must be better books on the market - Don't but this one.

Gray eyes scrying in the rain., 24 Aug 2008
As with many, I saw the movie first. This is where there is a rift as to whether the book or movie is better. I will leave that to you. (See my review of the movie)
This is the story of a family that on the surface that seems different from most families. Later we see it is anything but. The lives of several generations of the Owens family are covered from major events to those things that seem minor at the time. This book has a dark undertone and makes you think the cat is going to jump off the refrigerator at any moment. Yet if you quit trying to anticipate the story, you find it rich in beautiful pose and people interaction. Contrarily, this story is interspersed with vulgar language and repugnant images (probably necessary to portray bad guys and bad times.)
I enjoyed reading this book. I suppose now I will have to read something else by Alice Hoffman to see if this is her style or a radical departure.
Throughout the story you are not sure if it is luck, logic, or just practical magic.
not one of the best, 11 Apr 2008
I'm really surprised by other people's reviews of this book. I've just finished it and thought it was very average and the least favourite out of the Alice Hoffman books which I've read - The Probable Future being my favourite.
At one point I thought I was reading a book aimed at teenagers as the language seemed to be so simple but then the swearing made me realise it wasn't. I was really glad to finish it.
fantastic, one to keep and read again..., 29 Oct 2006
I accidently watched the film adaptation one evening when there was nothing else on t.v, the film was quite good considering that it had been given the Hollywood treatment so I thought I'd give the book a go, Im so glad I did its one of the best books I have ever read, the author has the ability to make you really visualise the wisteria, roses etc.. and to feel the weather and moods of all the people in the story, some "witchy, magical" books for adults are written in a very childish manner leaving you feeling a little patronised but this one is a big exception !!.
Highly recommend this book its really a feelgood story which is quite different from Hoffmans other tales which are a little on the depressive side to say the least.... 10 out of 10 for this one though..
Feel good magic to leave you smiling, 03 Aug 2006
I came to this book after wearing out the DVD I've got of the movie. As with many adaptations, the book is the superior, even if as a result of loving the movie so much, my images of the characters are firmly entrenched. This is a book to make you want to hug yourself at the end, I certainly found myself grinning like a loon when I finished it up on the bus to work. For those who dont know the story, its a tale of two sisters and how they learn to love themselves and each other, and of course their men! To spice it up there is death and curses, mad aunts and magic. The magic is subtle but present throught the book, a bit like the gardens and the weather that also feature. It's just another facet of the character's lives. I'll definetly be reading another Alice Hoffmann book and am looking forward to passing Practical Magic - the book - on to my fellow DVD addicts!
Magical, 15 Oct 2005
Before you pick up this book forget the movie adaptation, Sandra Bullock, and Nicole Kidman. The film is great, but it's been given the Hollywood treatment. The book is wonderful. Like most readers, I expected the quirky tale of two witchy sisters and their crazy old witchy Aunts. I didn't expect the amount of character exploration, the wit, the darkness, and the way that the magic is subtly referred to throughout, but not over-stated. I guess that's the meaning of "Practical" Magic though! It's a really great read, and well worth the money.
