H.R. Giger Tarot

Summary: major arcana by giger and akron
Review: It should first be stated that this is not a complete tarot, nor
is it in any way suitable for beginners. It is for Giger collectors and cartomancers interested in a radical re-interpretation of the Tarot. What you get is a 22 card set of Giger's art selected by Akron to serve as Major Trumps, a poster-sized detail of a Giger painting which serves as a layout board and a book by Akron explaining his vision and interpretatation of the "Shadow Tarot," rejecting the usuall sweetness and light approach. Those who dare to gaze into the Abyss may start here.

Summary: MORE THAN JUST DARK ART
Review: STUNNING AND PROVOCATIVE. THE WORK OF H.R. GIGER AND THE INSIGHT OF AKRON COMBINE TO CREATE A MASTERPIECE OF ARTWORK. THE OVERSIZED CARDS ARE A BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO ANY DECK COLLECTOR. I FOUND THE BOOK A USEFUL TOOL FOR DISCOVERING WHAT WE ALL MAY UNCONCIOUSLY REPRESS AND FEAR TO BE TRUE.

Summary: Dark Tarot deck!
Review: This Tarot is not for the faint of heart. This has the potential, if used honestly, to reveal some ugly truths about your unconscious motivations. The images are incredible, and well chosen for the cards. The cards themselves are huge (and need to be to do the images justice). They convey a fascinating darkness to the reader. The book is short and too the point, giving great background info. I would recomend this to serious, mature tarot readers and anyone who likes Giger's work. There is some nudity and disturbing imagery, so if that bothers you, look elsewhere.
