Most books on the topic of fortune telling with cards usually fall under two main catagories: they are either 1. too complicated or 2. they [are no good]!

This book is fabulous. Tarot card reading has a very slow learning curve and you would think that playing cards would be worst. But this book shows you how to do amazing readings with a plain-old-ordinary deck of playing cards.

I really like Richard Websters style of writing. He doesn't come across as a guru or greater-than-thou teacher. He writes like he's your buddy and sincerely wants to teach you his simple systems.

I wish the book were a bit longer, but I guess that would defeat the purpose. If you are looking for a great book that will teach you a terrific card reading system that will impress you and your friends and make you popular, then I'd suggest that you get this book.

It's awesome.

I was somewhat disappointed with this book. It didn't contain as many layouts as I expected and its definitions of the cards were somewhat lacking in breadth. However, the book spoke in simple terms and broke down the cards into their suits and numbers so that their meanings were easier to understand. I learned the significance of higher or lower numbers predominating in a spread, as well as black or red cards. This book has added to my knowledge of cartomancy, but I probably wouldn't buy it again.

the history in this book is great, espcially if you are a beginer, (like me) but like a beginer I bought a few books.... this book is great for telling you the history and what to do and to really prepare for the card reading..... but as for card meanings, some are good......... I guess If you are serious about cartomancy this Is a great place to start, I couldn't put this book down as beginner....... but jane lyle's interpretations are better.......taht't' just how I feel and every one will feel diffferent... but on how to start it was GREAT.............. but deffinetly get another book for whatever agrees with you.........about intrepretations.... I know I'm new, but I thought jane's interpretaions were better.......

Everything was good the shipping was fast and I was pleased with that.
The book was in great shape. The only thing is if a book was given as a gift and has another persons name in it, it should be written on the discription of the books use.

The book is helpful. Although you must remember that a person needs to posses a gift in order to use.

This book is very concise, gives the History of Card reading and is a very accurate tool to the craft.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in learning how to read cards.
