WHAT HAVE PEOPLE SAID ABOUT EMBRYOS?

“I’m really impressed…I honestly think this is a very good book, especially for those who want to learn how to put a show together and to see how it evolves.” — Luca Volpe, www.lucavolpe.com

“I picked up Paul Prater’s book Embryos…and have found it a fantastic read covering a much broader spectrum of topics than I had expected. It is not just a book of routines. It is so much more in three chapters. The routines are primarily mentalism that are given Paul’s clever bizarre touches and designed to entertain using an element of surprise. Years of experience and thinking went into creating the material in this book.

I had become a fan of Paul’s performance style after witnessing him perform last year and again this year at the East Coast Spirit Sessions, and now I am a fan of his thinking as well.”–Jim Magus

“[Paul] shares his journey, failures and triumph, as he now has a number of shows he is performing. While he shares freely his “tricks” this book is so much more a ‘how to become a performer’ guide.

Paul is a rising name and this is a great resource and one of the best books I have purchased this year. ” — Craig Phillips

“This is not a book that contains groundbreaking ideas and techniques, but that’s not the purpose of this book.  This is a wonderful examination into Paul Prater’s thinking behind his performances.  If you’re looking for an enlightening read that contains valuable wisdom on performing mentalism shows, then you will thoroughly enjoy this book.”–Jheff Poncher

“I think your Embryos is full of charm! It’s great to see a nice strightforward mixture of good solid techniques with left of centre presentations.” –Iain Dunford
