Hey guys! I've been a member for a long time, I posted once or twice and today I'm reviewing a nice little PDF available at http://www.simoncmagic.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

It's called Castles, has 8 nice little effects plus one or two false cuts and peeks.

There's a few variations on things that we've seen before (in-the-hands false cut, transpositions, triumph and sandwich effects...) but credit is given where credit is due and that's always nice.

My favorites are Resolution which is a nice in-the-handsTriumph effect using three selected cards and Box-Cutter because I'm a sucker for any transposition effect :) I happen to believe that a nicely-done transposition effect is one of the most magical things in the eyes of laymen...

You'll also find in Castles a nice, clean Sandwich effect using 2 selections as well as a cool color-changing routine, among other things, none of which are very technically demanding.

All in all, recommended!

Thanks,
Seb
