    I am, once again, truly honored for the time and attention you gave to review Orion David. Thank you very much for your kindness. Superb review, very thorough and you summed up Orion better than I would.

      Φαίδων, το ( τα ) βιβλίο σου ορίων, είναι ότι καλύτερο έχω αυτη τη στιγμή στη βιβλιοθήκη μου στο χώρο του mentalism. Εξαιρετική ποιότητα, ακόμα και στο...χαρτί! Μπορεί σε κάποιους να φαίνεται ακριβό, αλλά δεν θα πρέπει να ξεχνάμε ότι είναι κάτι πολύ εξειδικευμένο, που απευθύνεται σε ανθρώπους που παίρνουν σοβαρά την τέχνη,καθώς και ότι έχει την εμπειρία μιας ολόκληρης ζωής γύρω απο τα διανοητικά τεχνάσματα, από έναν καλλιτέχνη που γνωρίζει καλά το αντικείμενό του. Δεν ειμαι απο αυτούς που τους περισσεύουν, αλλά χαίρομαι που είχα την οικονομική δυνατότητα να το αγοράσω την περίοδο που κυκλοφόρησε. Ένα αληθινό διαμάντι, και μια πολύ καλή επένδυση για τους λάτρεις της θαυμάσιας αυτής τέχνης.

    This review made me want this book or rather set of books so much I just left Phedon a message and I am hoping he has more of them

    Got my copy today. I can't stress how absolutely on point you are with this video. It feels like a straight up college course in Mentalism, and I love it. I'm slowly reading and re-reading the first section about Phazma, and I'm completely freaking out. This SHOULDNT be possible, but it IS. I hope you're having as much fun with it as I am. I'm gonna be busy for a while...😁

      @@phedonbilek3322 Infinite potential, more like it! The concepts behind restricted imagery alone were so revolutionary, that I had to quadruple-read it to fully grasp it's magnitude and layering. Eurydice is an icing on the cake that makes it feel like the real thing.
      And I can say that I'm genuinely afraid of what your next 'final' version of this would be in the future, even if you never shared it, for the simple fact that, I don't believe you know what a limit is! Orion keeps adding so much, it's like a mental weight that keeps getting heavier, and stronger, with each new section I read.
      You're too great of a person, performer, and gentleman, sir. Even your writing is so humble, as you proceed to pave ENTIRELY new roads in Mentalism with this colossal work. I literally can keep going, but to sum everything up: Thank you, Mr. Bilek, for everything you have shared. It means the world to me, and then some.

      @@dariusacuna259 , your words are truly humbling and they give me the motivation and strength to keep pushing those limits further and further. The fact you took the time to read and re-read certain paragraphs is proof that you are absorbing this material. Yes, Restricted Imagery is a potent piece. But wait to read further….
      Thank you again for taking the time to write such lovely words. It means a lot.

      Actually it’s true the gold edition is limited to 400. But silver edition will be available worldwide at all magic dealers. The only difference is it will be sold as two separate book and not include slipcase. Also instead of gold lettering on cover. It will be silver.

      Robert, it is available. Even when the Gold limited set is done being dispatched, the Silver édition (the very one you can see on this review) will be distributed by a couple of picked distributors, such as MindFx, Vanishing etc. There will be 100 Silver sets, whose books will be sold separately.
