Bob Farmer - Turnantula
"The sleight … is to my knowledge new and is certainly a lovely maneuver promising wide applicability. If anything can shine through the welter of material being published today, I should think this sleight deserves to. It is quite simply, very, very good … your applications … [are] … excellent in their construction." - Stephen Minch
"… [Turnantula] … is quite excellent and I have never seen anything like it before." - Roy Walton
"The venomous bite of the Turnantula caused me to see outstanding close-up card magic that may not have been possible otherwise. Buy it now before an antidote is discovered and spoils everything." - [url=]Richard Kaufman[/url]
"Turnantula confused and amused me for years. I asked Bob repeatedly for a video and explanation. It only took 12 years, but, at last, here it is. I've made up the practice deck as Bob suggests and, at my advanced age, am learning a new sleight. That's how good it is. If you love great card magic, get this." - Matt Field
There is a magic deep state fed by an underground river of suppressed and secret information shared by a few, jealously guarded and never discussed among the general magical demi-monde. For decades, Turnantula was just such a secret. But now, forced as a condition of his parole (along with 100 hours of community service), the reclusive Bob Farmer has ripped asunder the iron veil of mystery and legend and laid bare the real work, the secret work, the work of a lifetime.
