Now that Ottakas have been bought out by Waterstones, we have two Waterstones in Norwich 50 yards apart.

Well, I went to the other one. Stacked on the floor ready to be shelved in the Games and Pastimes (Magic) section were a pile of books with Derren Brown’s face on the cover.

Tricks of the Mind has only just been released (came in today apparently). It is over 300 pages long and has chapters on Magic, Memory Techniques, Hypnosis (and NLP of course), Unconscious Communication, Anti-Science…

I will reading through it tonight to see if Derren finally fesses up to being the psychic bedazzler that he obviously is, but pretending not to be. Little teaser...
