5.0 out of 5 stars Very Very Nice Set of Runes, August 19, 2000
This is a really well put together and well thought out addition to the traditional runes. I have been familier with runes for a number of years and this set peaked my interest. I was not in the least sorry that I bought them. Even tho I wondered how the two philosophies would mesh...I was pleasantly surprized to find that not only did they mesh but the zen features added to the original runes. The book was a joy to read and had a lot of wisdom of its own... I love to "tote" around one of these runes each day. They are lovely and nice to focus on and meditate to as well as to use with the spreads described in the book. I think you'll enjoy these very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best rune set I have used., May 13, 1999
By A Customer
I have been actively studying zen for nearly seven years. I have also been actively using runes since I was ten years old. When I discovered this particular rune set, I was flabbergasted. I spent the last twenty bucks I had to get them, & I haven't been disappointed in the least. The runes are beautiful, the book is filled with wisdom, and I have found a greater clarity in my readings than ever before.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's a zen to publish such a book, March 16, 2002
By Richard Thorson "richard_thorson" (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews
Although the haikus are lovely (although they are not the Japanese style of haiku, they still work), zen and Norse do not mix well. On top of that, the readings for divination stray away from the standard a little to far. Example: Thurisaz is called "The Guardian of the Threshold. The haiku is as follows:

The guardian of the threshold
invites you to abserve
and comtemplate watchfully
I witness

Only problem with this is that the "guardian" of this rune is Thor and her was never this mellow (unless he was partying and even then he was never a "guardian of a threshold."

Definitely not one for the serious rune worker, but still worth collecting just for fun and for the nice runes that come with it.
