Gennem de seneste 100 år er der blevet udgivet en lang række bøger om mentalisme, men kun få bliver stadig husket. Blandt dem er The Color Series af Max Maven. Fem små hæfter med titlerne: THE BLUE BOOK OF MENTALISM, THE RED BOOK OF MENTALISM THE VIOLET BOOK OF MENTALISM, THE GREEN BOOK OF MENTALISM og THE YELLOW BOOK OF MENTALISM. Hæfterne blev udgivet i et meget lille oplag, og forfatteren har siden nægtet at genoptrykke dem, hvilket har betydet at de er blevet solgt antikvarisk for eorme summer.
Men nu - nu er de her! I samlet bogform præsenteres alle 53 effekter på 240 sider med nye illustrationer af Ton Onosaka. Hvis du er interesseret i mentalisme, er denne bog meget meget svær at komme uden om!

"When I was a teenager, and I had to do 10 shows in 2 weeks, these books saved my life. I can tell you off the top of my head, I performed Desire, Chaos, Nucleus, Four-sided Triangle, there was Mental Telepathy. So, it's a brilliant, brilliant book. I'm thrilled they're re-releasing this. I always say, when I see Max, 'Thank you for putting out these books, because they really did save my life.' If you haven't read these, you've got a treat. Get it while you can." - Steve Valentine

"Max Maven’s PRISM is more than just a colorful collection of modern mentalism by one of the art’s greatest thinkers and performers; it is a lens through which one may glimpse the secrets to constructing powerful, meaningful mysteries.
