"Will Fern lights up a room even before he enters it. He's the total package: high-energy personality, hysterical comedy, great audience interaction, phenomenal chops and highly original thinking. Add to that the fact that he is a really fine teacher and communicates his points extremely well." -Marc DeSouza

"He performs with such contagious great energy... and all of his creations have that quality built into them." -Asi Wind

"Anyone that performs strongly and prolifically is someone I listen to when they speak. The best advice comes from real world workers like them, and Will Fern is one of those guys. Magicians... pay attention." -Jon Armstrong

"I know Will's work intimately. His card behind the back will fool you badly, and his memorized deck work is first rate. Will is a thoughtful and uber-experienced worker. All of his friends are students. I'm happy to be one of them." -Bob Sheets

"Will Fern is one of the unsung heroes of magic. He isn’t the "name" you hear all the time, but if you ask those "famous” magicians about him they say two things "Beast" and "incredible performer". Will Fern is the magician other entertainers hire for their private events. Hilarious, killer sleight of hand, and a real worker. I hate following him…...and I love watching him work." -Mark Calebrese

"This is not pie in the sky stuff. This is stuff that will uses all the time (and now, so do I), and so will you." -Rich Bloch

"I've personally seen Will fool, entertain and completely destroy both top notch magicians and laymen. He's a real worker that knows how to perform the right material in close-up situations. Highly recommended!" -Karl Hein

"I met Will Fern and saw his magic. I became his friend to learn the secrets of his magic. Now he is just giving these amazing secrets away to anyone that will shell out a few bucks. I feel ripped off. Go buy the DVDs. There is great material for real practical working conditions." -John George

"Will Fern is an exceptional performer. I have rarely seen a magician be able to entertain a crowd like him. His energy is as high as his talent. On top of being an amazing technician, Will also has a true sense of what is magical and entertaining for an audience. So listen to him, watch him closely and get ready to laugh as much as you will be fooled!" -Boris Wild

"After seeing Will in action, you'll be inspired by his innovative approach to magic. He absolutely loves what he does for a living, and his enthusiasm rubs off in spades!" -Anthony Asimov

"Will Fern is a master at what he does. This lecture will make you a better magician in so many ways."?-Joe Rindfliesch

"Six hours of great performances, interviews and an insight in to a funny and talented working magician. There is so much to take away from this and not just the tricks. The thinking behind the magic, the structure of routines and seeing him work for real people in real conditions is what makes this such a special project. Will has just got himself another huge fan." -Paul Romhany, *Reviewing the DVD "BRING IT!" for Vanish Magazine
