Title: Better than the original
Review: As other reviewers have said, the coloring on these cards is excellent. I found the original Rider-Waite deck to be garish and distracting; this is much better. The finish is very slick.The Pictorial Key to the Tarot, written by Arthur Waite, is included in this set (or can be purchased separately). It was written around 1910, and the first 70 pages are almost impenetrable unless you know something about the Order of the Golden Dawn and Waite's background. Skip that part and just read his description of the cards. You will find that many other authors have simply re-summarized Waite's original descriptions.This book (and some version of the Rider-Waite deck) belong in every tarot library. But this book is perhaps not the easiest place to start.
