OK, so I have posted this a couple times and have praised my friends for all they have accomplished. Now I am going to post my review. 4 Days! That is roughly how long it took me to lock in the Aronson stack. I do mean locked in. I can name card or number. Can tell you where are all four suits are located; in order or out of order! It really is amazing to think that I am able to pull them out this easy. I have tried many times to memorize a deck and could recall some of it for a little while, but that was as far as I got.
The book itself is of fantastic craftmanship. The size is very convenient. There is a book mark ribbon built in. I love that in a book! Pages are all glossy and heavy. Stiching and binding is very solid. Dust cover is nice, kind of like the brown paper bags we used to cover school books with. Overall, it is pretty book, that is worthy to be on anyone's shelf.
The content is entertaining and laid out in a convenient and enjoyable way. You can read the parts on the history or not. You are free to pick from multiple paths so you can learn what you want, how you want.
I made the decision to do one deck. The first day I spent about an hour locking in the names of the cards and the first 10 locations. I read the story up to 26 and stopped. Over the next three days, with a few hours each day I was able to memorize the remainder of the deck.
I find that now this morning, I have full recall of every card and every number. I can list where any suit is, starting at the beginning, end or in the middle. Not quite as fast as I would want for performance, but fast enough to make me say that this book is the best product I could have used to accomplish this!
GREAT COMMENT !!!!
I had never even attempted memorizing a deck stacked before… For some reason felt drawn to purchase this book when it came out. I truly did learn Juan Tamariz' stack in less than an hour… And I could not have been more surprised/astonished! I'm a huge fan and thank you for doing this review. I'm glad you enjoyed it and that the images also worked for you
:D
I can’t recommend this enough!!! I have the Memory Arts Tamariz version and I have been trying to memorize the Mnemonica stack for over two years with no luck. I was able to memorize the whole stack in ONE DAY!!! It is amazing and really works!!!
YES YES YES !!!!
Do you have to split the images into quadrants? Thanks!
Nice review
thx
David you make it sound so awesome I wonder if it will help me remember name. I'm going to check it out thank you. 😎

I'm sorry, but the grid system isn't really working for me with the suits. I have a pretty lousy visual-spatial memory, but I can remember all the locations. I still havent decided how I should do the suits. I wish they had more alternatives.
good luck
Hey there! I know that this is an incredibly delayed response, but I had an easier time remembering that the suits were alphabetical, from left to right, top to bottom. C, D, H, S. Another helpful tip for me was that the “dominant” suits were last- those being hearts and spades, and that the ace of *spades* is typically the last card in new deck order. If you haven’t already gotten this down, I wish you the best of luck!
Being able to memorize a deck wpuld be awesome.
:D
I bought "temporarily out of order" last year but couldn't get myself to learn the Redford stack, I might have to this...
Good idea
Could this be helpful on my studies on school?? 😊😂
this is helpful to anyone who wants to learn how to improve their memory
Yes!!!
How does this compare to the "Memory" section in Derren Browns book "Tricks of the mind"?
Well this is an ENTIRE 300 page book with full color pictures. Did you learn how to memorize two stacks of cards in tricks of the mind?
magicorthodoxy Thank you for having taken the time to reply, I appreciate it greatly!
Tricks of the mind does touch on deck memorization, but doesn't iterate. My question is more in line with finding out if the mnemonic technique is different or the same.
Is there anything worthwhile in the book if you already know mnemonica or is it literally just teaching a way to memorize the stack?
its teaching you how to memorize cards - using the system of seeing pictures in your mind
got it... thanks david
Is it totally relying on visual memory? If so, it's sadly useless for me, I have Aphantasia, shame, I was seriously considering getting it too ;^
yes.... then this would not be good for you
magicorthodoxy oh well, the hunt continues LOL
Was the ending/opening intentional, referencing the book? Interesting 🤔
???
magicorthodoxy 5:26 you looped back to the "hey today we're gonna.."
dude get out my head... lol . I was just looking into buying this earlier this week.
cool
Memorising a deck isn't as hard as people think. And so worth it. Especially if you get books from juan tamariz and Simon aronson
agreed
Won me David plese
won you what?
