OVERVIEW
1 DVD, 2 hours of training, 1 incredible illusion, $30 bucks, 2 Pendragons, and 1 Magic of the Pendragons review. Is it gem or is it rubble? Stay tuned to find out. Hint: it starts with "G" and ends with "EM!"

EFFECT
Metamorphosis. If you don't know it, watch the trailer. Trying to describe it just won't do it the justice it deserves.

METHOD
In order to do this effect, you have to be extremely athletic, and willing to risk getting hurt. The props do some of the work, but the majority of it is your (and your partner's) physical capabilities.

PRODUCT QUALITY
What you're getting here is Charlotte and Jonathan Pendragon breaking down every single detail you can imagine to be able to do this illusion exactly as they do it (assuming you've got the physical ability to do so). Further, you get the evolution of the effect, the history, and so much more. The leave out nothing. It's well produced (L&L Publishing), well lit, well mic'd, well structured, and the teaching, explaining, etc. is perfect. As outlined in the ad copy, they cover everything. They go into great detail about each section below.

Further, the video ends with an interview of Jonathan Pendragon where you learn how they became the Pendragons, how their characters developed, how Jonathan dealt with / deals with his speech impediment, and a whole lot more. I'm a sucker for interviews like this. They're always my favorite part of DVDs like this. This interview was worth the price alone for me.

AD COPY INTEGRITY
Solid. True. Accurate.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I've said this before, when products are excellent, often the review is kind of short. I know this video, filmed in 2008, is coming up on it's 20th birthday in a few years, but if you're a magician, I cannot think of a single reason not to have this in your library, and I can think of a dozen reasons to have it in your library. If you Even if you're not an illusionist -- I'm not an illusionist -- you'll likely enjoy this. You'll learn the secret if you're curious. You'll gain the knowledge to replicate it if that's your goal, and you'll be enlightened with a bit of history and deeper magic knowledge. This was a joy to watch. It was informational, educational, entertaining, and a great way to spend a couple of hours that I'd gladly do again, and will do again.

FINAL VERDICT:
5 Stars with a Stone Status of GEM!
