"Roy's tricks are an extension of Erdnase. Whereas Vernon applied the philosophy of Erdnase to magical technique, Walton completes the revolution by applying Erdnase to the tricks themselves. Roy's methods are woven into each trick so as not to be suspected, let alone detected, and without ever sacrificing directness of effect. Roy Walton is without doubt the most complete card magician of the 20th century, and centuries to leave everyone standing in the 21st." Jerry Sadowitz
"There are stars, there are super stars and there are legends. Roy Walton falls into the latter category. 'The Complete Walton Vol. 3' is a wonderful collection of material from a true genius." George McBride
"Without fail pound for pound, Roy Walton delivers more excellent ideas and original plots in his books than most others by comparison. I already have favorites from this latest volume that I consider to be absolute gems and have been delighted in the discovery of them. If you enjoy well-crafted routines, an adherence to naturalness and direct effect, you will enjoy unearthing favorites from the fertile and imaginative mind of Mr. Walton." Chris Wood
"All I know about magic stems from Roy Walton. His effects are ingenious in construction and method. No one can fail to learn from this great magician." Gordon Bruce

I bought the book because I wanted to complete my Walton trilogy. The first two volumes are packed with amazing content; classic material!
The third volume is sub standard by comparison. I only recommend this for people that want to complete the collection.
