Description
The original Celebrity Presage was ingeniously created in 2011 by Magician Mike Maione, and it has now been completely remade into one of the finest book tests you will ever see – with greatly improved handling (perfection!) and all new capabilities.
Our killer system allows book page numbers to display sequentially front to back, whilst still allowing the performer to cleanly force ANY page they wish in real time. Invisibly & perfectly. When you see it with your own eyes you will be blown away.
In fact, your Celebrity Presage book offers multiple forcing methods, multiple reveals, and a killer “V” forcing gimmick we created from scratch to allow maximum flexibility. Celebrity Presage is a book test with multiple layered methods which can be used together (or individually) for predictions or mind-reading miracles. The perfect book itself is filled with hilarious celebrity quotes and instant comedy possibilities!
For the first time, App creator Marc Kerstein exclusively & generously allowed the use of all the force words from his popular “WikiTest” to be used in Celebrity Presage. This exciting addition means that WikiTest users will be ready to use Celebrity Presage quickly, with no extra memorization needed.
New book test ideas are as rare as a 1950’s Ford Mystere, and Celebrity Presage’s PPNS system is an exciting new fooler – especially when layered with the other built-in methods. This book is the result of a collaboration between Magician Mike Maione and Brett Barry, with many powerful tweaks to add even more horsepower! Have fun and go blow some minds.

“I like mentalism products that are a step forward. Celebrity Presage is a giant leap forward! Any one of the 3 principles included here would have made this my favorite book test on the market, but all three combined is a destructive force of mental astonishment! Just wow! This book is incredible. It took me 5 seconds to know this is a new standard. I’m not kidding.”
BEDROS “SPIDEY” AKKELIAN
“A book test like no other! Mike and Brett created a masterpiece. Plus, the addition of the V gimmick really makes this book a very powerful tool in the SvenPad® Family!”
LUCA VOLPE
“WOW! You have outdone yourself. The combination of possibilities, with both predictions (without the need for outs) and direct mind reading is unlike anything I have ever seen. At last, a book test that can be used repeatedly for the same group with 100% accuracy! Add to that, I got the biggest creativity boost of the year after first seeing it. I can for sure predict this is a winner. I’ll take two!”
Mikael Hedné
“After having performed it several weeks for real people, I can promise that you will amaze your audiences with Celebrity Presage! This is a winner, and I highly recommend it.”
SVEN RYGH
“Wow!!!! I was lucky enough to receive an early copy of Celebrity Presage and I’m completely blown away. This takes The Sven Principle and, more importantly, Book Tests to a whole new level. The numbering system is just genius plus there is so much more. If you’re thinking of getting a copy, don’t think… GET ONE NOW before they are all gone. Brett, you’ve done it again… AMAZING!”
PAUL MARTIN
“Celebrity Presage is the kind of fun book you would choose for a book test! It is a refreshingly fun celebrity theme — a change from the heavy novels that nobody has heard of. Add a genius page numbering system and Wikitest MOABT words and you have a winner.”
JOHN MORTON
“Folks this one is insane. I was lucky to get hold of one early. The S and L pages are literally invisible even upon close scrutiny. And the way you can freely flick through a seemingly normal book and still force any page you want is brilliant. But the cherry on the top is the clever numbering system of the pages. Plus, WikiTest words! It’s a stroke of genius. You can ask for any page number and when they open to that page number, boom there is your force page waiting.”
CHRISTOPHER HURST
“A Wonderfully organic, in your face, devastating selection process that couldn’t be fairer. And it’s just so much fun! Really, really clever!”
STEVE VALENTINE
“Still playing with the Presage book, and slowly beginning to dislike you more and more for being a friggin’ genius. I looked at the page edges through a magnifying glass, and the cuts are so fine and precise (with the perfect book paper stock you have chosen), that it simply blows my mind. And that’s BEFORE I even begin on this book’s inherent brilliance.”
PAUL SHIRLEY
“Celebrity Presage is a true game-changer. Several brand-new principles are combined to make for a unique presentation that’s a multi-phase powerhouse. Three (or more) people can look at the book, think of completely different things, and then, without asking a single question, the performer can reveal (or predict) a plethora of merely thought-of words, people, movies, music, etc.”
GABE ABELSON
“There are many principles at work. Not only can you reveal a celebrity, you can also reveal a movie or ANY long word they think of on their page. Brett has miraculously received permission from Marc Kerstein to incorporate the long words used in Wiki-Test! So, if you have the list memorized for Wiki-Test, you will have absolutely nothing new to remember for Celebrity Presage. Overall, this book test far surpasses my expectations. It is high quality, top of the line stuff, built for working pros, but easy enough for a beginner.”
