Boris Wild's new book with his latest creations

The routines explained in this book rest on the shoulders of contemporary or past magicians whose effects made Boris Wild want to create personal variations, whether in terms of method or presentation, with one goal in mind: have maximum magical impact on the audience.

Over these pages, you will discover new original variations on some of the most popular themes of card magic: incredible divinations, spectacular revelations, visual color changes, impossible effects of Any Card At Any Number...

This book, accessible to everyone and illustrated with nearly eighty photos, has been designed so that you can learn each phase as clearly as possible and thus easily master all of the routines described in detail by Boris. Also, most of these routines only require an ordinary deck that you can even borrow.

Finally, after each explanation, you will find extra variations that will allow you to take the routines even further and personalize them even more through ideas, techniques and presentations that you can adapt to your style.

Boris Wild's Variations will both fool and amaze you and your audience!

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE BOOK
  • Seven routines explained in detail + Extra variations + A bonus technique.
  • Book in English. Glossy soft cover in color. Size: 5.5" x 8.5".
  • 72 pages illustrated with nearly 80 photos.
CONTENTS OF THE BOOK
  • Foreword
  • Zoom 9: A routine with a borrowed deck that can be performed live or on Zoom where the magician manages to find a chosen card without ever touching the cards and with his back turned until the final revelation.
  • ARCAAN: An original Any Card At Any Number routine where the magician shows several unsuccessful methods of finding a freely named card until the last one where he manages to invisibly turn the chosen card over in the deck to a position that is also freely chosen.
  • Any Ambitious Card At Any Number: A freely chosen card is clearly lost towards the end of the deck. The spectator names a number that is freely chosen too. The magician then makes the chosen card rise not to the top of the deck but in the position corresponding to the chosen number and it is the spectator herself who counts the cards to it.
  • Predicolor: After showing an opaque envelope containing a prediction card, the magician shows a red deck and asks a spectator to name a number. Without any suspicious move, he counts the cards face up to the chosen number and then takes the prediction card out of the envelope. After a gag where the audience thinks the prediction card is not really one, the magician shows that its red back matches the one of the spectator's card and it is the only one because the backs of the 51 other cards of the deck have all different designs and colors.
  • InvisiQuiz: A freely chosen card from a borrowed deck is unquestionably lost. The magician asks the spectator several questions, some serious and others more unusual or even goofy, and spells out the answers, each time isolating the last card dealt. Although he has not seen them, the magician is convinced that the chosen card is one of those put aside. He invisibly removes the chosen card from the small packet and shows it is missing. He hands it to the spectator who then throws it invisibly back to the packet to make it reappear reversed among the others.
  • Impossible Double Divination: Two spectators each freely look at one card in the deck while the magician has his back turned. The cards are then shuffled several times and, despite these extreme conditions, the magician still manages to guess the two chosen cards.
  • Color Changing Chicago: A spectator names a card at random in a red deck spread face up. Without the slightest suspicious move, the magician turns the deck over and shows there is one and only one blue-backed card in the spread. He turns this card over in the clearest possible way: it is the named card. An indifferent card from the deck changes places with the spectator's card, thus becoming a blue-backed card while spectator's card becomes red again. Finally, the indifferent card becomes red again too and then the whole deck momentarily turns blue before getting back to red again like it was at the beginning.

A bit expensive
Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
Waited to give a review on this one because I needed several nights before I had any idea if it was as good as everyone says. I've had a real problem finding pillows lately. Either they're too soft to provide support and I wake up with a stiff neck or they're too sturdy and I wake up with a stiff neck. Contour pillows have worked best for me, but they fall under the category of too sturdy. I also toss and turn too much at night, which means I always end up in an awkward position with contour pillows. So I took a chance on an obscenely expensive pillow, and yes, that is the reason for one less star. I'd happily pay $70 for a pillow I thought was amazing and comfortable and perfect, but this one wasn't quite it. It IS comfortable. I have slept on it for a month now without it making my neck stiff, so it does actually provide a good balance between soft and sturdy. They make it easy to stuff the pillow to your preferred fluffiness and even provide extra stuffing if you need it, which adds to the degree of comfort. While the pillow does provide good neck support, I toss and turn a bit trying to find a comfortable position when I first try to sleep. The stuffing within the pillow moves around at night, most notably shifting to the side and the pillow is notably flatter now than when I first purchased it. You can fluff it out, similarly to a down pillow, but it doesn't seem to retain its shape on its own. In some ways, that's good because what it does instead is try to retain a shape that fits you. So yes, this is a really good pillow. One of the better ones you can buy. But it's really expensive for a pillow.

Best pillow I've ever had
Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
I don't really write reviews but holy buckets, Batman. This pillow is legit. Back, neck, and shoulder pain is nothing new for me; I've had scoliosis since I was a kid and hyperflexibility in my neck since birth leading to frequent muscle spasms that have caused me to miss work. Guys. This pillow. It is the most comfortable pillow I've ever had. Like, my neck doesn't hurt and I genuinely didn't remember what that felt like. It's simultaneously supportive and soft and it doesn't sink in. The instructions are super clear to understand and the pillow fluffs up no problem if it gets a little flat. This is a game changer for me and I so hope anyone who buys this has the same experience.

I highly recommend this pillow, it’s great for someone with neck or back problems.
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this pillow! When it says it’s adjustable it definitely means that. When you first get it, it’s hard to believe that it’s going to be anything but put it in the dryer for a few minutes and it becomes so large. You will definitely have to remove some of the stuffing unless you like a really large fluffy pillow. The stuffing is high-quality and once it has been put into the dryer it becomes a fibrous type material that can be fluffed over and over and go back to the same size. It seems to be a high-quality cover on the outer portion and is thick and has a slight cooling affect. It has a separate cover on the inner portion covering the foam stuffing. I ordered this because I have neck problems and it has been super comfortable for me because I’m able to adjust it multiple times depending on my needs for the particular night when I lay down. Having the extra stuffing means that if the pillow does happen to go flat I can always add the extra that I took out when I received it. It did have a slight odor when it first came, but after putting it in the dryer, it went away immediately. I do think that’s only due to the plastic that it’s shipped in not anything with the pillow. I think this pillow is well worth it price and I would highly recommend it for anyone that is a side or back sleeper or has any type of neck problems.

Amazing!
Size: King (Pack of 1)
Such a great pillow I’m buying another one! You can add or subtract stuffing to your liking. It’s really nice quality, quilted and soft. Best pillow ever. Super comfy and great sleep. Pretty firm with all the stuffing. Perfect the way it came with stuffing on the side. My husband loves it and now I want one.

Totally worth the money
Size: King (Pack of 1), Size: King (Pack of 1)
Right off the bat, the packaging is absolutely adorable and felt like I was buying a premium product. I love that this pillow is adjustable and as a side sleeper, I needed a pillow that is both firm and supportive of my neck. This hits all the boxes. We will be buying more of these for our bed!
