Criss Angel Mind Freak November 18, 2008 Criss is very descriptive and he gives you the sense of being there with him through each illusion, trick, and Mind Freak.
Pre Teenage Heartthrob October 30, 2008 I haven't the faintest idea of why my 12 year old granddaughter likes this guy, and even less of an idea of whether this is good or bad, but Amazon keeps pestering for a review... All I know for sure is that she likes him, and that since he is on network TV he can't be all that objectionable (although to tell you the truth, what is acceptable today for prime-time audiences would have been banned by the Hays Office, and you can Google it if you are a lot younger than I am).
For the little magician in everyone July 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Two things I really loved about this book are that you get to read about Chris' life and learn about how he became the magician that he is. He's a very special person and he shares a lot of himself in this book. Second is that the back of the book is filled with magic tricks that ANYONE can learn. I say that because I've never tried learning magic before and had a blast with these tricks. I got a huge kick out of showing the tricks to people and seeing them freak out trying to figure out how I did them. Way cool!
Book from my Man Criss Angel... July 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
One of the best magician in the world. In this book, takes us on a personal tour of his surreal world, a special place where he seamlessly blends illusion and reality. Prepare yourself for a stunning look into his mind, life, and philosophy.
MindNUMB July 14, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased this book from the MINDFREAK store in Luxor, Las Vegas. Less of a mindFREAK than a mindNUMB... This was one of the very worst books I have ever read, and I wasn't expecting much (he is, after all, a magician and not a writer).
The book was rambling and contained very little meaningful discussion. Instead, Angel spends page after page (after page...) lauding himself and his self-reported "laser-like" focus on his goals, his amazing imagination, and his laughable "signature poses". The "biography" portion of the book is thankfully short, with the balance of the book consisting of 40 "Mindfreaks" -- Magic 101-level tricks complete with photos of an "intense" looking Criss (who mostly just looks silly).
I actually felt LESS smart after reading this book. The real magic is how Angel makes your money disappear without providing you anything worthwhile in exchange.
Avoid this book.
