The wife has been adding to her collection of tarot decks, and this is the latest. The art on these cards is nothing short of fantastic. All inspired by Poe, of course, and all delightful. The backside of each card is a raven with an eyeball in his beak - you get the idea. And this set does include a pretty comprehensive guide book, with a genuinely interesting twist. Each card interpretation is related to a Poe story, poem or biographical detail. Unique, and very nicely done. But still the main attraction is the art. If you're a Poe fan, no matter what you think of tarot cars, you would enjoy this set immensely. ( )
