To be crystal clear the ‘Ice Cold Book Test’: 

* Uses no apps.

* Is 100% impromptu.

* Is EASY to do (could be performed by beginners.)

* As long as you follow the method, it should be 100% surefire (while like any method things could go wrong if handled incorrectly, we haven't had any issues.)

* Can be performed on stage, walk around, on the street - anywhere, anytime.

Why did we create the Ice Cold Book Test?

A year ago, deep in our study of classic magic, we learned a few incredible methods devised by Theodore Annemann to perform hard-hitting book tests.

We loved the impact these routines could have but felt they needed some serious modernizations to become a perfect EDC (everyday carry) and feel completely natural and motivated to modern-day spectators.

Our thought was this…what if we could create a book test that looked like this:

You ask a spectator to name a book. Since this is a book you’ll be looking up online, it needs to be something older—one of the classics. The spectator names a book and then with one Google search finds a PDF of that book.

Next, they freely choose some numbers to create a page number. They go to that page number of the chosen book and look at the first word.

Somehow, even though the word is never spoken, written down or shared by the spectator you're instantly able to reveal it. 

It took us a year to fully develop the method.

And man, we love it!

(This is potentially the one standalone effect we’re most proud of.)

This method is massively versatile and incredibly powerful.
