Three internationally-known illusionists boldly reveal the powerful secrets behind the supernatural, psychic ability and the limits of Satan: Do some humans have supernatural powers? Is it possible to read minds? How do psychics get their secret information? Could the miracles of Jesus have been an illusion? Should we be afraid of Satan? Solid answers and amazing personal stories make this a fascinating read. Unmasking the Masquerade: Three Illusionists Investigate Deception, Fear, and the Supernatural is well documented and endorsed by notable experts in the field, including André Kole, Founder and Director, André Kole Outreach and world-renowned illusionist and inventor of illusions. Kole summarizes in his foreword: The three illusionists you're about to read-Rod Robison, Adrian Van Vactor, and Toby Travis-put forth a convincing case that prominent beliefs in the paranormal are erroneous and without merit. You'll explore with them some of the history of alleged paranormal activities that were later found to be fraudulent or simply misunderstood. Some of these incidents had enormous impact on our culture and still do, years and even centuries later. You'll delve into what the Bible has to say about Satan's true powers and lack thereof, and how the scriptures have been misunderstood and even, in some cases, manipulated to lead people down dangerous paths to deception and unwarranted fear. And you'll discover why Jesus, who has been accused by ancient and modern-day skeptics and critics of being a magician or even a myth, was, in fact, the One who really did accomplish the impossible, laying legitimate claim to being "God with us."

Autorenporträt
Rod Robison is a mentalist, illusionist, author, speaker, and broadcast professional. His comedy mind reading show, "Mentallusions," has been a popular feature at corporate and organizational events as well as aboard Holland America cruise lines and at London's Magic Circle Theater. A graduate of Cedarville University, after college Rod toured and recorded with pioneer contemporary Christian music band Selah in the 1970s. During those years he sang and penned lyrics for the band's songs, one of which, Fat Baby, was later recorded by Amy Grant on her million-seller Grammy award-winning album, Age to Age. Following his years with Selah he helped found two Christian television stations in Ohio and Michigan before moving on to Christian radio in the late 1980s. Today he serves as Vice President of Development for the Family Life Radio network headquartered in Tucson, Arizona, where he and his wife Jeannie raised their five children in the beautiful Desert Southwest. Rod's interest in magic was ignited nearly three decades ago when he saw a magician at Dollywood amusement park in Tennessee perform a trick where a copper coin transformed into a silver coin in Rod's own hand. Deeply perplexed by the trick, he lay awake that night obsessively attempting to devise a method by which the "miracle" might be accomplished. The next day he returned to the shop, bought the trick, and learned that none of his proposed methods explained the real secret. That was the genesis of what years later became his popular "Mentallusions" show, during which he demonstrates what he calls "sleight of mind," popularly known as mind reading. Rod has been performing professionally for over 20 years and is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Magicians and the Society of American Magicians. Robison is often asked by audience members if he has psychic powers. His response: "It may look that way, but looks can be deceiving." (Learn more about Rod Robison at www.unmaskingthemasquerade.com.)
