The Nth Degree is the long-awaited sequel to John’s groundbreaking book, One Degree. It builds upon the one-degree philosophy and focuses on reaching the utmost level possible in your magic.
You’ll discover 26 powerfully-entertaining card routines, ranging from visual to mental…close-up to parlour…fun to mysterious…hands-on to hands-free. You’ll also find six thought-provoking essays to help elevate your magic and audience connection.
Far more than a book of tricks, The Nth Degree is a guide to help you think bigger, gain clarity on your purpose, cultivate your creativity, and harness the full power of one degree in your magic.
