John Bannons highly-engineered yet easy-to-do brand of magic shines in this retrospective.
Over forty complete routines are described in Bannons easy-going readable style. Here are the tricks and the clever innovative thinking behind them. Collected from Bannons publications over the ten years since his internationally best-selling Dear Mister Fantasy youll find an impressive variety as well

Sophisticated fractal packet tricks
Contemporary gambling demonstrations
Ultramodern Ace assemblies
Unorthodox garden path tricks
Unconventional transpositions
Refined mental mysteries
High Caliber covers the magical waterfront with a fresh original view.
Yet notwithstanding this extraordinary bredth no gaffs are employed and no difficult moves are required. Virtually all of the routines use regular cards most are impromptu and quite a few are self-working. Typical of Bannons work each layered contsruction has been polished until the trick has a point a purpose and a place in the magical firmament.
All in High Caliber is a remarkable collection of card magic by modern master.
