A book that will first make you laugh—then make you think.
Good Tricks for Bad People is the ultimate collection of tricks and gags from the ingenious Kevin Ho, a close friend and one of the most creative minds I know.
This book features 14 items from Kevin’s wild repertoire of crazy tricks and absurd tomfoolery. From a parody of the classic 21 Card Trick, to a bizarre routine that plays with your audience’s sense of touch, to a pun-filled, multi-phase sandwich routine, Kevin’s material will leave your spectators both baffled and doubled over with laughter (or groaning at the puns).
Make no mistake—Kevin’s routines are packed with whimsical twists, unexpected turns, and completely unpredictable endings that only a mind like his could dream up. These tricks and gags aren’t just for magicians; they’re perfect for entertaining laypeople too.
As a special treat, I’ve included a bonus item at the end of the book. It’s a trick that was banned from Principia for being “too juvenile,” but it fits perfectly alongside Kevin’s humor, which I deeply enjoy and share.
The best part? Each copy of Good Tricks for Bad People includes a FREE prop you’ll need to perform this “banned” trick.
