    The thickness of a magic book doesn't make it great. Neither does a flashy cover, nor a fancy trailer.

    The best magic books are the culmination of a lifetime of knowledge and refinement.

    Allan Kronzek has spent his life developing the card material in this book. Every single effect has been painstakingly worked through for maximum impact. Read a spectator's mind, help measure the compatibility of a couple, and learn Allan's perfect card opener. It's all here... in Artful Deceptions.

    "One of the best magic books in many years. Highly recommended."
    - Jim Swain

    "Allan's precise, yet conversational, writing will transport you to your own private session with a clever and thoughtful practitioner. You'll enjoy the discourse. Time well spent."
    - John Bannon

    "[Allan] has an ingenious sense of deception, devilish, I think. It is truly a great lesson in creative imagination and intelligent thought."
    - Bob Fitch

    "The kind of work that truly contributes to the improvement of our art."
    - Jamy Ian Swiss
    "I thoroughly enjoyed reading this little book. Kronzek writes in a clear and engaging way making it a joy to read.

    "Artful Deceptions is a very carefully chosen set of bona fide performance material that can be mastered with some practice time. " -Rolando Santos , Reviews-Linking Ring Magazine*
    "Artful Deceptions is a petite but attractively produced book. Half of the routines have been published previously in one form or another but Allan has updated them for inclusion here. It’s not a book for those interested in the latest sleight of hand techniques or currently trending effects. However, it does contain solid routines for classic plots using techniques you probably already know. It’s a good introduction to the magic of Allan Zola Kronzek who teaches the tricks well and gives all the presentational touches that make a difference. If you’re looking for material you can go out and try fairly quickly, Artful Deceptions is certainly worth your time." -David Britland, Reviews-Genii Magazine*
    "I think you will enjoy reading this book, as well as performing several of the effects taught within." -Marc DeSouza, Reviews-M-U-M Magazine*
    "Overall I was pleased with Artful Deceptions. Its an easy read with solid routines." -Magic Junkie, reviews - Reviewer*
