Welcome to The Learned Pig Project
Our aim is to build a vast Magic library online for free access by magicians
worldwide.
Due to the secret nature of Magic we can't post magic books publicly on the
Internet. That is why The Learned Pig Project asks you to pass a simple magic
test in order to become a "Member" and gain access to our
Members-Only Area where you will find all the books mentioned above plus a lot
more!
