Absolute Madness by Craig Petty [Book]

18 powerhouse routines. 4 no-holds-barred essays. 182 pages of pure, undiluted magic. This isn’t just a book--it’s a career in your hands.

Craig Petty isn’t just a name--he’s a machine. A walking, talking magic factory who performs hundreds of shows a year for audiences of every kind: from tuxedoed executives to sugar-rushed kids and everyone in between. And now--for the first time ever--he’s opening the vault.

Absolute Madness is a greatest-hits collection of Craig’s most devastating material. These are the tricks that get him booked, rebooked, and talked about. His openers. His closers. The sleights that turned him into a legend in underground coin circles. The mind-reading that stops corporate crowds cold. The kid-show routines that win over even the most caffeinated birthday parties.

And here’s the kicker--you get to see every routine performed live, in a professionally filmed show at the P3 Magic Theater. That’s right: every effect, tested in the fire of a real audience, with reactions that don’t lie.

What’s Inside the Madness?

• Across - A thought-of card travels--clean, slick, and gimmick-free.
• Back Off - A packet trick meets ambitious card meets “how did you do that?”
• Final Twist - Vernon meets Bannon in a deck that rights itself in a stunning finale.
• Movie - A blockbuster prediction wrapped in a card routine with a twist no one sees coming.
• Sharp - A Sharpie that grows. A coin that explodes in size. A routine that kills.
• Thud - Mercury, metal, and mayhem in your hands. This one slams.
• Craig’s Medallion - A prediction held under a participant’s hand turns out to be impossible--and completely real.

That’s just scratching the surface. Coin madness, sponge ball routines, wild card visuals, walk-around miracles--there’s something here for every audience, every moment, every magician.

And between the tricks? Gold. Craig’s essays dive deep into the real stuff:

• How to market yourself like a pro.
• How to stay creative under pressure.
• How he turned his passion into a family legacy--and a business empire.

This isn’t theory from the armchair. This is insight from a performer who lives on stage and behind the scenes--and has the mileage to prove it.

Why You Need This Book:

• It’s a working magician’s bible--material that kills in the real world
