My Comments:I thought that 22 effects for £12.49. was excellent value. Oliver has a great sense of humour which is obvious from his writings. He has a very off the wall attitude to his effects, which I find very refreshing. He credits where it is due.
Haveing said that, personally, there are only a few items I would actually use, as I have come away of late from Close-Up/Cards but some can be modified for Stage. My personal favourites were "Telling your Ace from your Elbow", "Can't see the Wood for the Trees" and "Fishbowl Illusion".
I think, for £12.49. you can't go wrong, even if you only used one effect its worth the price.
