“A State of Mind is essential reading for anyone interested in the art of mentalism. It’s full of charming, mystifying and original routines, as well as four valuable essays on how to become a better mentalist. Dennis loves the art and – fortunately for us – is happy to share his many years of performing experience with his readers. As well as providing everything necessary to perform each effect, Dennis also includes detailed notes, credits and inspirations. I enjoyed these just as much as the effects. I predict that A State of Mind will become the top-rated mentalism book of the year.” – Richard Webster
“A book for every mentalist, and even magicians. It has many insights that are right on and is full of wonder. I hope every mentalist reads it. They really must…. I love it!” – Marc Salem
