Product Description
If you liked whatever your favorite book is, you'll love More Power To You! The Very Best of David Acer
29 ingenious routines from over 20 years of published work, all rewritten, revised, updated and upgraded. Plus 3 brand new miracles, including David's astonishing moving-hole effect, "Wormhole"!

Not only does Mr. Acer create clever methods, but his plots are novel and unusual. Even with cards and coins you’ll find themes and approaches that are universal, appealing and frequently quite funny. As opposed to being locked into another magician’s script, by having the very premise itself be intriguing the individual performer will have a much easier time adapting the material to his or her own style.
Mr. Acer is also a genuinely funny performer and writer, which is apparent in the scripts for the effects, as well as in the descriptions themselves. ... [Read More]
