Ad copy:
[I]Sweden's Tomas Blomberg is not like other magicians. He combines his background in mathematics, physics, and puzzles to create a style of magic that is uniquely his own. Many expert magicians have heralded Blomberg as a reclusive genius, and for the first time ever, his highly guarded secrets will be revealed in a beautiful, oversized, hardback book.

Part 1 of an intended trilogy. Originally available in a regular or limited, deluxe edition.

Also includes an errata sheet containing corrections and two additional items that the author received/discovered after the book had gone to print.

Oddly named manuscript, as it has more tricks than the title states (I counted about 33 items, plus additional thoughts and ideas).

From the introduction:

In the traditional card stab a knife is thrust into the deck, ending up adjacent to a chosen card (or between two chosen cards). At some point an inventive mind thought of substituting a playing card for the knife. The effect became known as The Magic Thrust; developments on the theme proceeded rapidly thereafter.

The present manuscript deals with further thoughts on the subject.
