Summary: Beautiful- but not for everyone!
Comment: I was slightly disappointed when I got this deck. While it is fantastic the way they blended digital art, photos, and hand drawing, I think they could have done a better job. Several of the people cards seemed awkward because of the expression or lack thereof on the person's face and the fact that they didn't seem to be standing in natural poses. The cards were very sterile in their presentation so those who enjoy digital art will love them. If you're like me and like more of a hand drawn look, definitely look at this deck in person before you buy. The deck is unquestionably beautiful, it's just a matter of what style you are drawn to.
On the positive side, I like the Pagan reworking of the Major Arcana. For example, I've found many people are much more comfortable with an Underworld card than with a Devil card. The substitute cards are a twist, though, and it takes a little getting used to. Also, the Minor Arcana are true Pips. For these reasons I wouldn't recommend this deck for beginners.
If you love digital imaging and Pagan lore, I highly recommend this deck and book (which has a lot of Celtic Pagan lore, but is not necessarily geared toward beginners, either). For everyone else, try before you buy if possible.

Summary: Beautiful and earthy
Comment: I want to say that it is a beautiful deck with one problem I found.
The pictures were NOT what I expected. They are scanned pictures of real people in costume merged over an artistic background. I would have preferred all art and not real people pictures.
I would suggest looking at the deck in person if you can before you decide to own a set, just to make sure you are getting what you want.

Summary: I beg to differ
Comment: Most of the reviews on this product are very positive, but I must strongly disagree. I am not afraid to say that this is the only Deck I have discarded. I do not think the artwork is particularly well done at all; the deck was not as useable as others, though the text was slightly insightful. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
