His other publicity includes being an interviewed guest on Vancouver’s best Rock radio station, 99.3 FM “The Fox,” and various international newspaper articles.
Christopher has published two books about magic. His first book, “Magic, As I See It,” discusses his thoughts on various theoretical aspects of the art form. The second book, “The Black Book,” teaches some fantastic material that has received rave reviews from fellow magicians and audiences. Book publications are only one of the avenues that Christopher has been able to showcase his talents.
Christopher James is also a featured performer in two instructional magic DVD’s. The first is entitled “Kard Klub,” in which magicians from around the world perform magic in a street setting alongside commentary and advice for the student to learn.
