Before beginning, let me say that I’ve been friends with Titanas for a few years, with that said, that gives nothing to my thoughts on this effect – Assuming it was made by someone completely different, the review would remain the same!

So, that’s outta the way…

TITAN’S FINGER What’s the effect?

Well, quite simply, you are to POP your finger out of the joint and twist it 180 degrees, letting the screams and shock die down, you then proceed to reverse the action!

The method itself is a GENIUS application of an older concept, there is NOTHING on your fingers, the gimmick it’s self is hardwearing and will last a long time, no refills, no pipe dreams, just pure workable magic. You can’t go wrong with a “Paul Harris Presents” product, and this is no exception.

“Simple, direct, and impossible – Just the way I like it!”

I gigged this the first day I got it through the post and it’s lived in my pocket since.

Fantastic effect, it’s a killer trick that has people squirming in their seats!

How many magic books do you read a month?

I do read a lot and always carry a copy of the Expert at the Card Table in my suitcase but I am also a geek and love gadgets of any kind, specially those that don’t run out of batteries.

I’ve been checking out all those new ebook readers out there like the Kindle, the nook and the sony ones but they are still a bit expensive and with all the great magic books already in my library I think I will have to let them go, for now…

I saw this thing the other day and though it would be an awesome addition to the “stupid-things-you-end-up-dumping-or-losing-anyway” box that I keep under my bed so I decided to buy a bunch of them to give them away as holiday gifts to my friends and family to encourge them to pick up reading again. Not the kind of books like the Twilight saga but more like, at least, Stieg Larsson’s novels.

Here is the “Thumb Thing” a book holder that makes your reading experience more fun. And I found it for a dollar at Dealextreme, shipping includded of course: Convenient Thumb Thing Book Holder (21mm Diameter)

The Thumb Thing

Thumbthing

A brilliant new invention for
reading books – it makes
reading more comfortable.

Also use it as a bookmark.

Ideal for reading in bed, or in
the bath or on the beach.
Great for commuters.

Everybody will want one,
everyone should have it.

‘look mom, one hand only!’

You might find it a bit stupid at first but I have to tell you that everyone that I’ve shown it loved it and asked for one. I’ve ordered another dozen… Damn, I should start to consider reselling them for 2 bucks.

Hehe.
