Incredible! Absolutely incredible! It clearly took Chris many, many, many hours to put this together from scratch. I have to admit, I personally never cared for book tests in general. Why can’t the helper just think of a word and you tell them what they are thinking? Why does the chosen word(s)/thought(s) have to come from a book? This “book test” eliminates that question because, well, this other worldly information is ONLY available in the Stardust book. It’s not something the helper would know without the book. I’m a “Sci-Fi” geek. I’ve always loved Star Trek, Star Wars, Outer Limits, Lost in Space (yes, those last two dates me) and all of the various outer space shows and movies. There just are not many Sci-Fi related routines available for performers. This one is a perfect fit – a book from another humanoid race with information documented by them – and now shared with one Earthling… Yes, the book allow you to do a traditional style book test, where you read the helpers mind after they have selected an entry. And, it allows you to provide information about the entries surrounding the selection. What I like best is that you can have one helper “read” another helpers mind – no cueing, stooges, or secret help from you! Fantastic! This is really mind-blowing when the reveal is made. So far, I’ve only been able to perform this a handful of times and the response has been over-the-top great. I can’t wait to explore additional ways to use the book. Highly recommended! The forces appear to be real, unlimited selections by the helper – you aren’t asking anyone to think of a page/entry, no extras are needed for the forces, there are multiple forces with totally different outcomes, and the forces are “self-working” (embedded in the book itself). This is beautiful, well-made prop and well worth the money invested.
