After being out of print for years, this remarkable collection of refreshingly original and diabolically clever card magic is finally available again in a special limited edition version.
We take great pride in producing the finest magic books in the industry, and it all started with High Spots by Caleb Wiles back in 2009. This book was an instant smash-hit that laid the groundwork for us to eventually publish our own library of 100+ bestselling books. Commemorate this crowning achievement with an exclusive 15th year anniversary edition of High Spots.
This special edition book features a redesigned modern cover with a 15th anniversary logo that also appears on the spine. It marks the first time High Spots has ever been available in hardcover. This limited 15th Anniversary version is a one-time printing.
What Is High Spots?
High Spots introduced the magic community to the innovative genius of Caleb Wiles. It’s the type of book we love to read. No fluff or filler. Just fooling, entertaining, and practical showpieces that are a ton of fun to perform.
This includes beloved gems like “Reswindled”, which is Caleb’s take on “Reset” that is arguably worth the price of the book on its own. Paul Harris (the creator of the “Reset” plot) even called it his favorite version of the effect. “Semi-Automatic Luck Test” is also the type of deceptive and surprisingly easy-to-do effect you’ll love performing.
In total, there are 11 professional routines ranging from self-working to intermediate. Inspired by one of Caleb’s biggest passions, professional wrestling, this book is a ton of fun to read. Every detail is laid out to ensure you can start instantly amazing audiences with these creative and ingenious effects.
SPECIAL BONUS
As a special bonus, The High Spots – 15th Anniversary Edition also includes Caleb’s “Rematch” download COMPLETELY FREE ($25 value). This amazing collection features updated and reworked versions of two of the most popular effects from High Spots (“26!”, “ReSwindled”), as well as an additional practical stunner called “All Signs to Point to Yes” where a card changes three times before you finally find their selection.
