I have close to no knowledge of the subject of magic so I can’t really take into account any inaccuracies in the book, but I read it and enjoyed it. I didn’t read it expecting to become an expert on the subject, just read a good book.Unless he completely screwed up major things, I’d still recommend the book. Now I also don’t fault Ricky Jay in his review. He is obviously more knowledgeable on the subject and reads it from a different POV. But I still think the review was a little over-the-top.
