A card is named, and the book is opened to a spectator's birthday. Beside that exact date, the named card is already written! Includes a premium hardbound book, a bonus softbound edition, and multiple routines.
They say you can't judge a book by its cover...
This one dares you to.
The Fortune Teller's Book of Days is designed not to feel like a typical magic prop, but like a curious book that could have existed for years—a mysterious collection of dates, destiny, and predictions simply waiting for the right moment.
The result isn't merely a quick card trick. It's a personal and theatrical prediction in which a birthday, a named playing card, and a mysterious book come together to create an impossible revelation.
One spectator names a playing card.
Another participant then uses their own birthday and opens the book to that particular date.
Written beside their birthday is something that seemingly could not have been known in advance:
the exact playing card that was named.
The prediction is already there in the book, as though it had been written long before the performance ever began.
There's no fishing and no complicated sequence of questions required to arrive at the correct answer. The revelation is clean, direct, and wonderfully personal.
The strength of The Fortune Teller's Book of Days isn't limited to the final prediction. It's also about everything you can build around that revelation.
A birthday is inherently personal. By making that date an essential part of the effect, the prediction immediately carries more meaning than simply opening a book to a random page.
Present it as a collection of predictions, a mysterious volume about fate, or a strange book that appears to know events before they happen.
That gives you plenty of room for storytelling, suspense, and mentalism.
The main version is presented as a beautiful hardbound book.
It has been created to look and feel like a genuine published book—the sort of volume that could sit naturally on a bookstore shelf or among other books in a personal collection.
Its understated appearance helps keep attention on the story rather than suggesting that the book is an obvious magic prop.
Alongside the premium hardbound edition, you also receive a softbound personal-carry edition as a bonus.
This compact version is ideal when you want to have the effect available for more spontaneous performances. Slip it into a pocket or bag, and you can introduce the mystery of the Book of Days whenever the right opportunity presents itself.
You therefore receive both a premium version for your regular performances and a practical carry edition for magic on the go.
You're not restricted to a single presentation.
Multiple routines and handlings are included, allowing you to explore different ways of presenting the concept and adapt it to your own performing style.
You'll also receive a bonus routine by Bob Farmer, adding another approach to this intriguing piece of magic.
The Fortune Teller's Book of Days turns a simple choice and a personal date into a prediction that appears to have been waiting inside the book all along. It's an effect where curiosity becomes suspense, participation becomes prophecy, and the final revelation feels as though fate itself wrote the ending.
