DVD Review: Uncovered by John Luka

Book or DVD?

Should you opt for the book or DVD? Both are the same price and you get more tricks with the book. Most notably, I liked Luka's five-phased "Ambitious Card" and his "Coins Through the Table," which didn't make it to the DVD.

I think that watching a performance video is best for seeing a trick in action, but it's usually easier to learn a trick by following the instructions in a good book. For this reason, if you trust my call on the best tricks, you can purchase the book and get more value.

But on it's own, "Uncovered" is an excellent DVD. And if you're a fan of Luka, or you simply want to perform great card and close-up magic, you’ll do well to purchase both the book and DVD.
