The Manual of Darkness by Enrique De Heriz
The world's best magician is going blind, but is there a story in his past that can save him?
The Spanish author's decision to essentially split the book into two parts.. is a neat sleight of hand that gives a book an unexpected impetus. * THE SUNDAY BUSINESS POST *
Rooted in extensive research in the history of magic and sleight of hand, the story that evolves is one of loneliness and discovery. * BIG ISSUE IN THE NORTH *
