"If Corinda is the Bible of Mentalism, T.A. Waters is the New Testament." - Gaetan Bloom

"Mind, Myth & Magick is T.A. Waters' magnum opus, in which he brilliantly redefines the genre, blending pure mentalism and mental magic in equal measure. It is a mammoth, 800-page collection of 21 earlier books and the breadth of material on offer is staggering, it seems like every possible theme, presentation, trick and prop is explored and usually multiple times! Upon re-reading the whole book, two things really stood out to me: firstly, how inventive Waters was - you will regularly find yourself marvelling at how clever a method is, and there is a lot of material in this book that could have been marketed separately. Secondly, how smart and opinionated he was. His thoughts on mentalism and its performance permeate the book and demonstrate what a deep thinker and important voice he was. Essential reading, it's a cornerstone work that you simply must have in your library." - Mark Elsdon

"This book has provided me with years of enjoyment, ideas, and insight. You must own it to get the full impact. Among the 10 best in my library." - Marc Salem

Dreams of Mentalism Made Real!

Have you ever dreamed you could walk out on stage, ask the spectators to call out at random a multi-digit number, then turn to reveal a card pinned to your back in a position where you obviously can’t reach it - a card that states the precise number just stipulated?

Have you ever wished you could record for later verification - hours or days before the fact - the appearance of a perfect stranger who will sit in a specific seat in your audience?

Have you ever wanted to conjure up a live, sixteen-inch-tall demon in a candle-lit séance room, or divine a mentally chosen name with the aid of a mysteriously animated talisman that floats in a bottle of Atlantean seawater?

Have you ever desired to answer an audiences innermost concerns and questions without a whisper of chicanery - to tell people things about them that you couldn’t possibly know, just by touching some possession of theirs - to divine the astrological signs of total strangers without having the slightest knowledge of their birthdates?

These are but a few of the things that T.A. Waters has dreamed, then taken as challenges, and to which he has devised ingenious and practical solutions.

Mind, Myth & Magick is packed with exciting ideas and keen insights on mentalism, thoughtfully and thoroughly explained in this remarkable book by one of the field’s finest thinkers and most inspired innovators - T.A. Waters!

You have studied your Annneman, consumed Corinda. As a mentalist, what is the next step? You hold in your hands the first genuine postgraduate course in mentalism. This volume contains over 800 pages filled with more than 200 fresh and innovative feats of Mind Reading and Bizarre Magick. In addition, T.A. Waters sheds penetrating new light on the entire field of mentalism through a series of extensive re-examinations of fundamental subjects like:

Psychometry
Book Tests
Spirit Tests
Fortunetelling
Symbol Tests
The Three-Phase Prediction
The Newspaper Test
Billet Work
Working with the Tarot
... and much more

T.A. Waters is recognized as among the most original and knowledgeable minds in mentalism. His work has been widely praised by Bascom Jones, Charles Reynolds, Tony Andruzzi, Ricky Jay, Ted Lesley, John Thompson, Irv Weiner, Phil Goldstein, and many others. In the 1980’s he released twenty-one booklets of his exclusive mental secrets, which were sold to a select clientele for a total of more than $300.

Mind, Myth & Magick contains all these works and additional material, revised, updated, and extensively illustrated. Within this one volume lie material that will set you apart from the generic mentalist and make a lasting and powerful impression on those who experience your performances.

T.A. Waters is the author of numerous books fictional, nonfictional, and magical. These include The Lost Victim - a Detective Book Club main selection - and novels in the genres of science-fiction, crime, espionage, fantasy, and Gothic mystery.

Among his nonfiction books are the best-selling Psychologistics and the Christopher award-winner, Encyclopedia of Magic and Magicians.

Mr. Waters has also appeared in several New York stage productions ranging from Shakespeare to experimental drama, and is a member of the Screen Actors Guild. His long-standing involvement with mentalism has encompassed varied performance venues spanning the Arctic Circle to Tokyo.

He worked for a time for Nelson Enterprises, the well-known mentalists’ supply service, and is the author of many respected articles and monographs on mindreading and kindred topics. He resided in Hollywood, California until his death in 1998.

Michael Weber:

What do I think about T.A. Waters’ Mind, Myth, and Magick?

- There’s an entire 6-part impromptu mentalism act that’s probably better than the one you’re currently performing on page 674.
- Who was using the Ishihara Test for mentalism back in 1961? The answer, and a powerful effect, can be found on page 723.
- Interested in performing Psychometry (Free Will, Desire, Sneak Thief) without looking foolish? Begin your reading on page 115.
- Want to fool Penn and Teller (and everyone else)? Take a look at what’s on page 31.
- A three-object divination using ordinary objects and a simple yet surprising gimmick worthy of Ian Fleming’s Q? It’s on page 9, (and you could make it in under two minutes.)
- Check the 11th (unnumbered) page to learn what T.A. thought about women in the field of mentalism.
- Seeking a miracle method for a real-time three-part prediction? Start on page 59.
- A version of Any Card (really, any card) at Any Number (actually any number) using only the cards in an ordinary card box that's on the table from the start, and the spectator can count down to the card himself (no specially printed gaffs, no rough and smooth, no fake deals, no apps).
- All of the above and dozens and dozens of other principles, miracles, methods, and wisdom all in one place.

Thousands of other mentalists and magicians have purchased this book. You have the chance to become one of the rare few who have actually read it.

Perfect “Hair-Doing” Command Chair
Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels), Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
As a physician, mom, and military officer, my mornings already feel like a tactical operation: breakfast, cartoons, and hair time before we roll out. My old high‑back desk chair turned every ponytail into a wrestling match with the chair back. This low‑back, armless chair has officially become my hair‑doing command center. What I love: • Low back + no arms = easy kid access. My daughter sits facing the desk, snuggled in her blanket, eating breakfast and watching TV. I can stand right behind her and actually reach her hair without a chair back or armrests blocking my elbows. No more asking her to twist sideways and slowly slide off the chair while I chase her head. • Wide, comfy seat for both of us. The seat is generous and supportive with thick cushions. I have plenty of room and my daughter is perfectly comfortable for our whole morning routine. She’s happy, I’m not bent at weird angles, and the whole process is smoother (and quieter!). • Looks and feels more expensive than it is. The faux leather upholstery is gorgeous in person and feels soft and substantial, not flimsy. It blends right in with our bedroom furniture and doesn’t scream “office chair.” • Thoughtful packaging & painless assembly. Everything arrived in perfect condition, very well protected in the box. The instructions were clear, all hardware was labeled, and it took me under 10 minutes to assemble by myself. • Glides & adjusts smoothly. The chair rolls, swivels, and raises/lowers easily and quietly. No squeaks, no sticking. I can move her closer to the desk or spin her toward me with one hand while holding a hairbrush in the other. A quick heads‑up: The chair is on the larger side (which I personally love), so if you’re looking for a tiny, petite chair, check the measurements. For me, the extra space is exactly what I wanted. Bottom line: If you also use your bedroom desk as a hair‑doing station, homework hub, or breakfast bar, this chair is a game‑changer. Comfortable, stylish, easy to assemble, and priced competitively with similar chairs—while actually making our chaotic mornings run a little smoother.

The perfect desk chair for sitting cross-legged—plus it rolls!
Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels), Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
This chair is absolutely amazing if you like to sit cross-legged while working. The seat is incredibly wide, giving you plenty of room to get comfortable without feeling cramped against the armrests. The smooth faux leather is awesome. I am honestly impressed with the price vs quality. The padding is nice for my 13 yr old daughter to sit cross legged on. The cushion is thick and supportive, and it has held its shape really well without flattening out. I also love that this specific model has wheels—a lot of these wide cross-legged chairs come with flat bases, so having the mobility to roll around my desk space is a huge plus. It looks high-end, feels sturdy, and was very straightforward to assemble. 10/10 recommend!

Great value and chair!
Color: Fabric-grey, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
Great chair and value! I got this to use with my work desk. It’s not super padded and I don’t know how long it will last, but it’s comfortable and the height is adjustable. It feels solid and my teenager was able to put it together with the instructions. It looks nicer with my desk than I thought it would. The fact I can sit “cross cross apple sauce” was the most important feature!

Comfortable, Stylish, and So Easy to Assemble!
Color: Leather-beige, Size: Luxurious(With Wheels)
I recently purchased this chair and honestly, I’m very impressed! It took me longer to unpack everything than it did to actually assemble it. The setup was quick, simple, and the video instructions on YouTube made it even easier. The chair is super comfortable, rolls smoothly, and fits perfectly underneath my vanity without taking up too much space. I know it’s marketed as a “cross-legged” chair for younger users, but at 57 years old, sitting cross-legged isn’t exactly happening for me anymore 😂 — and I still absolutely love it. It’s stylish, comfortable, sturdy, and perfect for everyday use. I would definitely buy this chair again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cute and functional vanity or office chair!
