When Vanishing Inc. released the original AmazeBox last year, magicians across the world immediately recognized the countless uses for such a clever utility prop. Since its release, it has been used on some of the largest stages in the world by thousands of magicians, including a number of famous performers.

The AmazeBox, if you haven't heard, is a revolution for switching billets and playing cards. Spectators write, say, their favorite movie on pieces of paper and then drop it into a small cardboard box. You never touch the box; someone comes on stage, opens it up and randomly selects a billet. It is always your force billet.

We received two important pieces of feedback from the professionals that used AmazeBox in their show: they'd like it to contain more billets, and they'd prefer it to be black rather than white.

Not only is the AmazeBox MUCH bigger (it can hold 200 slips of paper instead of just 30), but it is also stronger. Steel plates between the cardboard ensure that this will last MUCH longer and is better suited to travel, and the new matte black color means it will blend in perfectly in any environment. After weeks (yes, really!) of re-designing, we have now made it so it fits back into its packaging, so you can transport it flat wherever you go. The box, when flat, it will fit in any large suitcase.

With the AmazeBox Black you can:

- Switch up to 200 billets
- Perform surrounded
- Travel anywhere
- Have a fail-safe method for switching paper, playing cards, and more!

In a 45 minute, online video, Mark Shortland takes you through everything from assembling the box, to routines and more. If you have a place for the original AmazeBox in your show, the AmazeBox Black will change everything!

"I've performed a Q & A act for over a decade. I've tried so many methods to appear natural and hands free. Bags, boxes, envelopes. This is the most innocent looking method I have ever seen! And completely hands free. I'll take two. When you see something this good, always buy a spare!"
- Paul Draper

"The best gimmicks in magic are the ones who fool you even when you know how they work. When I first saw this I knew what it was and what it did, yet I didn't see it happen! Seamless, elegant and beyond deceptive! Best mentalism gimmick I've seen this year!"
- Spidey

"Mark Shortland has created an ingenious and devious solution to an age-old problem. Natural looking, hands off in operation and simple to use; this might well be exactly what you are looking for."
- Luke Jermay

Xianxia-inspired novel I can actually read
Format: Kindle
I've read (or attempted to read) several wuxia/xianxia stories in the past. This is probably the best of that genre that I've tried. I know, such a titillating opening statement, but hear me out: this story is very good. NOT great, but not the typical "my eyes wish to bleed from my skull" experience, either. Most Chinese fantasy is bad. I wish that were not so, hence me trying to find good stories. In general, the stories don't make a lot of sense, and the grammar and repetitive phrasing makes the translations a generally terrible experience. Coming from a background of looking at college student papers, I've had my fill of bad grammar and poor sentence structure; I don't need more. With an English speaking author at the helm, however, this was a pleasant ride. There were a few grammatical errors but nothing to get my pants in a twist over. The story mostly makes sense, with only the two main characters occasionally speaking like locals throwing me off a bit, as well as the two of them growing so used to elements of their surroundings and quest rewards. It just felt a little unnatural in places. My biggest gripe is how they suddenly sprout knowledge of city planning and infrastructure. That really felt out of character, and came out of left field. Other than that, I think this was a solid first entry for this series.

Great great great but …..
Format: Kindle
Before I get into the meat and potatoes of this review this is a five star book. I have to say that starting out it is a five star book now rarely is a book absolutely perfect don’t get me wrong there are some classics in this genre or others that are just perfect now since this is the first book in the series it’s not perfect there are some points where concepts could’ve been made clear there are some points where things run a little long arcs in the story run a little long but overall it’s a 10. Imagine you going to a five star immaculate restaurant you sit down to eat and the waiter brings you your food they make one mistake they spill a drop of wine on the tablecloth is that a big deal no does it diminish the experience no but you notice it. Same thing here. No onto some specifics 10 realms has a great progression system two dynamic MC’s and a sort of bro shooter story. That’s what you get here and you get lots of that here. When you finish the book you’re going to want to move onto the next so you know it’s a great book now there are times when the story slows down it goes a little too slow in the middle of the book again you could flip through and to be past it but ultimately you can read through it and you will be better for it. Is it that bad no not really but you do notice it. Once the story really picks back up your back into it and like I said you’re going to want to continue it. Since it is the first book in the series I can understand this problem I’d like many others look forward to seeing what is next.

Interesting twist on an Isekai
Format: Kindle
I really enjoyed this novel. Not only are the two main characters well developed, but so are the side characters. The slice-of-life setup is done well, with with you (the reader) being pulled along into the story. Right from the beginning, the author is successful in getting you to be fully invested in their struggles. While the book could stand to have another editorial pass, it does not detract greatly from the story. I also really enjoyed the Beast Mountain Trials. Far from your standard dungeon run, the - contestants? participants? contender? - whatever you want to call the people who participate in the Trials alongside Erik and Rugrat, who sort of fall into the Trials while trying to just live their lives and figure out how the Ten Realms things works, all participate in the different levels to see how far they can go. While the sect elders seem to understand that passing all the levels grants that person control of the dungeon, it also seems like everybody else who participates (or has participated) stops short of the last trial. Well, either that or, while they may successfully withstand the waves of beasts - the letter of the quest - they fail in the spirit of the quest, and thus fail to "beat" the dungeon. Given the way the villagers respond to Erik and Rugrat almost every time they do something to improve the villagers - often at their own expense or sacrifice - it is clear that the Ten Realms is very much a Darwin-esque universe. The strong rise to the top; the weak fall to the bottom. Yet, the many citizens of the universe, at least in the First Realm, have clearly failed to realize that they are stronger together. Which is perhaps why no one else has successfully completed the Beast Mountain Trials. Finally, while I knew that Erik and Rugrat were going to enact their revenge upon the Moon Healing House, I did not expect ... that. Not to say that it wasn't warranted, not out of character. Nor was is really unexpected. Not really. I was just a little surprised at the sheer coldness of it. I am definitely looking forward to reading the next book, as Erik and Rugrat ascend to Second Realm to continue their work toward healing the dungeon.

Another great start to an interesting series :)
Format: Kindle
A great start to a new series, a very good hybrid between a light LitRPG and Wuxia combination which somehow is greater than the sum of its parts. For LitRPG aficionados, the leveling system is pretty basic, but solid, the crafting part bringing it a lot more flesh and sparkle. For those who like Wuxia, they will instantly recognize many of the concepts and may enjoy (as I know I did) the emergent clash between the `strength first` philosophy so prevalent in Wuxia novels and the `strength with a helping hand` model of many Western writings. The second part of the novel contains some town-building, tower-defense elements which I found well-thought out and interesting, and I am truly looking forward to the way they will develop `in the next realms`. The protagonists are interesting, you can really empathize with them, especially at first, and the character building is slow but steady. I was surprised by the specializations they chose, and I absolutely loved the healer/healing part of the world-building, for me it was fascinating. I think I read the book in one day, even it is by no means short, and I found it very enjoyable.I am looking forward to all its sequels!

It's worth the ride
Format: Kindle
I personally want to give this series a 5/5 I've read all nine books one after the other and enjoyed the entire ride through. I'm a very big fan of LitRPG's and cultivation genres and I think this series does a great job at really taking you through both of those experiences and giving fully fleshed out reasons as to why things work the way they do. The reason I am giving this series a 4/5 is because of somethings I think you need to be aware of and ready for. In which if you are it will be a good story for you. One there are editing errors these decrease as the series go on but sometimes can break you out of the emersion as you have a "Wait, what?" moment. As a said it is a minor thing hat happens less and less and can be overlooked. There are a lot of characters, and I have seen several reviews addressing how that upset them with many POV's. I understand that isn't for everyone. Personally I think it makes the world the writer puts us in feel alive and expands things to more than just Erick and Rugrat. Which is what you would expect from a series that has literally 10 different planets. These POV's are also used to show the effects Eric and Rugrat have on the people and places they interact with. Gotta have a little bit of an attention span to read about a world like that. That's it those are the two things that I personally felt could knock this story down to a 4/5 The realms is funny, action pack, things have a long lasting ripple effect that matter as you progress and the characters with all their power still always feel grounded in a way that makes you cheer for their wins and mourn their loses. I saw a lot of negativity about this series as a whole and I will stand by my title this series is worth the ride. "Oorah"
