Book Description
Combines the magic of fairy tale and divination in a deck offering new breadth and depth to card readings. The Fairytale Tarot presents classics like Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, and Puss-in-Boots and remarkable, yet less familiar, adventures in a readers' tarot that’s stunningly rich and brightly textured. International in perspective and universal in its implications, the Fairytale Tarot is an important contribution to the world of tarot and cartomancy.

* Fully illustrated 78-card deck

* Based on authentic and unabridged tales from around the world

* By the makers of the critically-acclaimed Tarot of Prague and Baroque Bohemian Cats’ Tarot

* Foreword by Rachel Pollack

* Engaging and easy-to-follow companion book includes a summary of every tale

It's been printed and packed and so distribution will begin next week. We are very happy with the way this has come out - the print quality is beautiful, very bright and vivid colours with lots of detail.

If you'd like to see the cards (though they are not yet all up on the site, something that I have to get on to in the next few days) then you can go to the main site:

and from there see both the standard and "gold" edition decks.

It's odd for me seeing this deck without the elaborate borders. We loved those and I defended them to the hilt in the first edition - but doing away with them makes the deck feel totally different, "sharper" somehow. Well, not sure yet which I like better, so I'll probably end up using both!

And by the way... if you'd like to catch up in general with what we're doing (including a forthcoming new deck this autumn) our newsletter is now online:

I was very happy to see that The Victorian Romantic Tarot was voted Number One in the "Top Ten Decks" poll over at Aeclectic Tarot (the biggest international online forum devoted to tarot).

Two of our other decks featured too, The Fantastic Menagerie Tarot also came in the Top Ten, and once more The Tarot of Prague was in the "Top Ten Decks of All Time".

All I can say is thank-you to those who voted, it's hugely appreciated and makes us feel that the long haul of making a good deck is really worth it (though I may have said otherwise at 3 am in the morning coming up to a print deadline!)

This year we only plan one tarot deck - in the autumn of 2007 - together with one much more challenging (some will say disturbing) oracle deck that we're doing in collaboration with Rachel Pollack.

Right now we are taking a bit of "focusing" space - time to think more slowly, review what we've done and consider our next work. Oh, I've just realised that that's almost a perfect description of what the "Seven of Pentacles" card is usually taken to mean. Okay then, I will go and pull out the Victorian Romantic Seven of Pentacles and take a long, hard look...
