Title: Gimmicks Gone Phar-o-way
Product review: I was looking forward to this book bcause I thought it would be entertaining as well as a learning experience. I just could not get past the gimmicks or the giddiness. I tried reading it a couple different times. This writing style might work for some, but it did not for me. If you want a book with a story as well as an opportunity to learn, then I would recommend two current books-"Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell" and "The Falls". I honestly believe Phillips has much to tell. I would love to see him write a regular old book with a great story, and then experiment as he masters his craft.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
