Book excerpt: The following appetizing introduction by Dr. A. M. Wilson, editor of the Sphinx on the merits of "New and Original Magic," by Edward M. Massey (Spon & Chamberlain), should attract the interest of book-buyers generally."That much-abused word original has found a proper setting in this book of Mr. Massey. Solomon said: 'There is no new thing under the sun.'"For many years past King Solomon's sayings could be applied to magic, but Mr. Massey has disproved the axiom and given us something new in practical magic. There lies latent in the brain of everyone a vision, a dream, an imaginary something that seeks to escape and become a reality, a tangible created thing of value. When Mr. Massey submitted his manuscript to me for judgment and criticism, I immediately thought of King David's expression: 'Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength, ' and paraphrased it to 'Out of the mind of the amateur has been born a new thing in magic'"Mechanical magic has been neglected and almost forgotten in the multitude of sleights and parlor tricks that have flooded the market and crowded to the wall the greater effects that demonstrate the science of magic or the magic of science. There has been a plethora of books on magic, but a paucity of magic in the books."New and Original Magic opens or revives an important and indispensable field for both amateur and professional performers. . . . Not since Professor Hoffmann's Modern Magic of forty-five years ago has there appeared a book on practical mechanical magic until Mr. Massey gave us this truly original work. Few indeed are the works that remain as permanent texts and guides for the worker in magic and mystery. I commend the book

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master storyteller Alice Hoffman brings us the conclusion of the Practical Magic series in a spellbinding and enchanting final Owens novel brimming with lyric beauty and vivid characters. The Owens family has been cursed in matters of love for over three-hundred years but all of that is about to change. The novel begins in a library, the best place for a story to be conjured, when beloved aunt Jet Owens hears the deathwatch beetle and knows she has only seven days to live. Jet is not the only one in danger—the curse is already at work. A frantic attempt to save a young man’s life spurs three generations of the Owens women, and one long-lost brother, to use their unusual gifts to break the curse as they travel from Paris to London to the English countryside where their ancestor Maria Owens first practiced the Unnamed Art. The younger generation discovers secrets that have been hidden from them in matters of both magic and love by Sally, their fiercely protective mother. As Kylie Owens uncovers the truth about who she is and what her own dark powers are, her aunt Franny comes to understand that she is ready to sacrifice everything for her family, and Sally Owens realizes that she is willing to give up everything for love. The Book of Magic is a breathtaking conclusion that celebrates mothers and daughters, sisters and brothers, and anyone who has ever been in love.
