My New Favorite Deck
The media could not be loaded. I love that this deck basically takes the Rider-Waite-Smith deck and makes it dark and moody. Every card has beautiful artwork. Too often, themed decks will have art on the major arcana but get lazy with the minor. The Pages are called Princesses in this deck which is something to keep in mind. Also, the minor arcana doesn’t have the name of the card at the bottom, it has a keyword or phrase pertinent to that card, so it’s important to know your suits well if you are a beginner- the number is helpfully displayed at the top to help you out. The guidebook that comes with this set is probably the most concise, yet thorough one I’ve ever received. It’s such nice quality too. I will probably read it cover to cover, then keep it nearby to consult often. It’s that well written.My set came in pristine condition, however the cards were firmly stuck together. I’m not sure if this is common due to the coating on the cards which is shinier than any other deck I own. Or if possibly my deck just got very warm which caused the adhesion. Either way, good news, I got them separated with no issues or damage and after shuffling them a bit they were ready to go.Bottom line: If you are already familiar with and love the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, I think you’ll quickly fall in love with this deck just like I did.

Love them
I absolutely love this deck. I love the art on each card and every time I look at them I notice something new. I also learned more about runes. It is a must have for shadow work and is a great deck to add to your collection.

"Lovely, dark, and deep"
(...this deck doesn't actually remind me of that Robert Frost poem I used in the headline, but it is still, I think, an accurate description of this deck.)The kit in all is lovely; the booklet is a nice size-- not very small, not too big, and I think super useful for keywords, correspondences, and the like.What I like most about this deck: the physical feel, weight and size of the cards, shuffle-ability (...? I like flippers and the glossy/slippery-ness of this deck is perfect for that without being excessive), and the most important and cool thing, in my opinion: it 100% has the traditional RWS imagery BUT with different and absolutely beautiful artwork and details. The images are more detailed than the traditional RWS, but the scenes in all are unmistakably RWS-inspired and close to original, if that makes sense. The photo shows that each card has the elemental and/or planetary correspondence on it, which I like and find unique. Most of my decks do not have that. Ah, and the back of the cards should be visible all the way to the left in the photo, as well.Have there been a few cards that I've scuffed up the top or corners on from regular use? Sure. Maybe 2 or 3? But that's to be expected. And even those edges are minimal, and I've had this deck for over a year, at least. Seriously, I could sell this deck "Like New" and that would be accurate. It is not usually one of my go-to daily type of decks, but I do find that I seek it out and keep it nearby because I end up going back to it every so often and every time I do I'm struck with the dark beauty of these cards.Note that the cards appear lighter due to my lighting when the picture was taken. These definitely have a more shadowy look about them.I would definitely recommend this deck if it calls to you in any way, and/or you collect decks as I do.

Impressive Deck
Had seen several unboxings of the deck on You Tube and there was somethng about this deck that called to me. It came only 2 days ago so this is first chance to really get into it. The cards are stunning, The artwork is so beautiful and almost magical, it really talks to me and I felt a connection with the deck immediately. I collect decks, and have many, but do not connect with all of them. Its really personal choice, as every deck is not for every person. These cards have an other worldly feel about them. There is much gray and white in the backgrounds although the cards are colored. It looks like all of the images are surrounded by mist which adds to the mystique of the deck. The artist has added many surprises into each of the cards. There are hidden and spectral images in the backgroiunds of each ot the cards and this adds to the message of the card. Much to see and study in each image. The cards come in an 8" by 51/4" magnetic close box. It looks sturdy. Also included is a 150 page book that measures about the same size and details each card with colored pictures. The cards measure 4.75" by 2.75 " which is standard size and easily handled. They are of a durable stock with only a light lamination which makes them easy to handle and shuffle. Only problem is that the box came damaged in 2 places probably due to shipping, and on the Lovers Card there is a big blur right on the face of one of the figures. Have already contacted Amazon and they are sending me out a replacement. In spite of this, I am very happy with this deck and know that I will be using it a lot as it talks to me and I can really connect with it.
