I know its just a book, but there's no other way to explain what Micah does other than calling it magic. Just give the book a chance and I promise you will experience the same magic that I have felt through Micah's eloquent writing. However, while the majority of the tricks are simple and, to be honest, somewhat worthless, there is one that I found simply mind-altering. You can see for yourself, but the trick where you disappear and end up in the closet is truly astonishing. I still haven't left.
