I am a beginner tarot card reader and have purchased a few books on reading the cards. This book is excellent for beginners! It takes the Fool through a journey of the cards to help you to learn them in their order. A history relating to Greek mythology is given for the major cards. Every card is described in great detail. At the end of each description there is a explanation of what this card would mean in a reading. There are also some sample spreads at the end of the book which is great. This book is excellent for beginners especially if they would like some background on the tarot. I highly recommend it!
