40 years ago, Paul Gross started Hocus Pocus Magic and grew it from a small corner shop into one of the world's largest family owned and operated magic suppliers. Paul has equipped famous magicians and hobbyists alike with everything imaginable from stage props to coin shells, from head twisters to silk scarves, all while providing unparalleled customer service. Paul, along with his sons and family, continues to operate the business with the same enthusiasm and dedication to the customers that got him and his family this far.To honor the 40th year of the business, his sons Max and Cole sat down with renowned card designer, Edo Huang, to come up with a deck that would capture the heritage and feel of the company, as well as appeal to all areas of card community.
Hocus Pocus's doors opened in 1976 and the design of the tuck case captures the vintage feel of that era. The deep purple, paired with sculpted gold, hearkens back to the days when stage magic utilized contrasting colors and flashy patterns to capture one's attention. The rabbit ears and top hat logo have been reimagined to give a more classic feel, while light and airy scroll work provides a pattern without drawing attention away from the bold typography. The tuck will be printed on Soft Touch Stock with deep penetrating color for a velvet feel and classy look.
Edo set to work incorporating ideas from Max and Cole into what became the card back design you see today. The mirrored rabbit ears and top hat are positioned in the classic styling to provide the eye with a familiar layout. Edo and Max wanted to keep the back-design light and incorporate thin line scrolling to fill the space between the dotted- and broken-lined frames. Four-pointed stars are sprinkled throughout the design. They carry the theme from the card backs to the tuck case and continue on to the Ace of Spades. The deep purple is instantly recognized and conjures ideas of royalty, magic, and mystery. The gold tone inks contrast against the purple, and give a majestic feeling while adding to the vintage feel.
The idea was to make this deck usable in all categories, while still adding some custom touches that fit the theme. The card faces feature a light grey wash and fine line detail in the background to tie into the vintage look. The slight details add to the design while keeping the integrity of the classic look. The pips and indices are familiar to card enthusiasts and spectators alike. The Ace of Spades stands out and pulls the scroll detail from the card backs into the large styled spade.
With playability in mind, the courts have been recolored while keeping the USPCC traditional court faces, dress, and head wear. The color palate gives the courts a unique look while maintaining a sense of familiarity.
The Jokers offer a design area that doesn't need to conform to many traditions. The hat and wand symbolize the magician's tools of the trade, and pay homage to the countless supplies Paul spent so many years providing to magicians of all levels. Two exposed cards provide a unique reveal while paying tribute to a friend of the family and Hocus Pocus contributor, @56sealed.
United States Playing Card Company was chosen after weighing the pros and cons of each company. The options they offer in quality and materials used best fit our needs, and give us the right combination of materials and inks that will give us the look and feel we are going for. This will be a one-time print only and will never be printed again! This will help maintain the collectability we know many of our customers will appreciate. As a 40th anniversary deck, we feel a limited run of 2500, printed in the 40th year of business, is the only way to go. We have a close relationship with the custom deck department at USPCC and will work to ensure the highest quality possible.

Firstly your introduced to Huntyr you see her closed off hard core badass than towards the end you see the most subtle change and growth it’s amazing and the enemies to friends to lovers was just perfect, AND THE TWIST AT THE END GOT ME GOOD! You see one spicy scene the whole book but it doesn’t even MATTER BECAUSE THE BOOK WAS THAT GOOD. I’ve read 85 books in 2023-2024 so far and I’m pround to say this is my all time favorite.

Fast paced romantasy you will not want to put down!
Format: Kindle
4.25 stars! I LOVED this book with similar vibes to Hush Hush, Fourth Wing, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night! It was fast paced with easy world building and will keep you turning the pages late into the night because you will not want to put it down!
Huntyr is a fierce bad@ss FMC trained to kill vampyres her entire life. She is sent on a mission to go to the academy and earn her spot into The Golden City. Upon arrival, she is forced to room with the delicious fallen angel, Wolf, who is the only one who knows about her assassin identity. The romance, the plot twists, the secrets revealed, the battles, and the tantalizing training scenes had me hooked! And that ending…. I’m holding my breath in need to know hell!
Read if you love:
🪽 Fae, Vampyres, Fallen Angels
🪽 Academy setting with magical trials
🪽 Forced proximity and slow burn
🪽 Rivals to lovers
🪽 Hidden identities and secrets
🪽 Tend your wounds

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!

Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf
•
I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆
We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger!

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟
This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens.
The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him.
I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure.
My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times.
Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
