Publisher's description:
 
Step inside the mind of one of the UK's working mentalists, and take a peek in his secret notebook.
 
Bairn contains more than 40 practical mentalism routines for close up, parlour and stage.
Inside of this 268 tomb you'll find mentalism that is surprising, shocking and above all - worked for real audiences under fire at private parties corporate events and on luxury cruise ships all over the world.
 
Routines Include:
- Accidental Mental Square. A surprise ending for the magic square this exciting, unexpected and logical.
- One Short Way To Play Fair. What is touted ad Ken's Card at Any Number that is fooling everyone in his lectures.
- Step Up. Volunteers step forward when they sense you are holding their unseen drawings which co-created with Banachek (name drop!)
- Bookend. A whole act in three parts that delivers a surprise punch that knocks your audience dead at the end of your show.
- E1. When a volunteer chooses any one of 5 face-up words that audience members wrote down there is no way you could predict that, right? Wrong. It's the ONLY word spelled out on enormous letters in the envelope that's been standing there the whole time.
Plus much more totalling over 40 routines.
 
Bairn is presented in a hard-hitting, entertaining way that is not for the easily offended. All professionally illustrated by Phill Smith. Bairn will shock you!
 
"Some of the most direct and stunning pieces of mindreading available on the market...Bairn is filled with powerful material." - Magic Magazine
 
"The most important book since Maximum entertainment" - Atlas Brookings
 
"Wow... fantastic... not one, not two but a whole book on remarkable ideas and effects. These effects will smack your audience in the face. You can tell that these are not pipe dreams, they are the work of a professional who has sorted out each and every little nuance to get the most bang from the presentations. I love the fact that unlike most routines that have a set conclusion, Kennedy has worked hard to give us a surprise ending, a smack in the face that will bring the most skeptical person to their feet. I love this thinking and will be adding some of these ideas to my own mentalism tool box." - Banachek
