Alan Shaxon and Anne entertained and mystified audiences all over the world with their magic act billed as "Sophisticated Sorcery."  During their career together Alan and Anne made many friends in magic and won many awards in USA asn well as the UK.

Scott Penrose and Stephen Short have completed this book, which Alan had started before he sadly passed away in 2012.

Alan's life and career had been augmented by Stephen with many photographs and anecdotes from family and friends.  Alan's friendship with Robert Harbin has been detailed.

Soctt has updated and added clear and detailed illustrations to Alan's effect's including trademark effects such as The Hydrostatic Glass, Ultimate Nudist Deck and Aerial Fishing, which Alan kept secret from magicians during his career.  Confabulation, which Alan created, is also explained in print for the very first time.  In total there are more than 25 effects and routines from Alan's repertoire.  

This book will be a wonderful addition to magician's libraries who entertain with close-up, stage, cabaret or children's entertainment.
