Phathom by Brandon Queen

PHATHOM is a collection of six routines and concepts that have been taken straight from Brandon's personal working repertoire of the last decade Each routine has gone through a series of evolutionary developments ;. The results of countless trials, errors and discoveries made in real world performance situations . Each of the routines presented in this book are original creations that are still used in his current professional performances. Until now, he's finally decided to release them to the public.

All of the routines in this book focus on either mind control, or revealing some sort of personal thought, information or idea, that exists only in someone's head. Almost everything expressed in this book is prop-less and impromptu, with an organic, natural feel to it.

RAM - ..
