1. I have to admit, I've always been rather disturbed by some of the more morbid drawings on the traditional Rider-Waite tarot deck, infusing the occasional art-fair-booth reading with a sense of dread. I came upon the baseball version by accident, though, and in purchasing it was enchanted more by the pictures than by an interest in tarot.

   How fitting that I received this deck the day of the All-Star Game! In that spirit, I enjoyed reading the instruction booklet with its strong baseball metaphors (one reversed card warns against 'too many groupies') and refusal to take itself too seriously. The pictures and lettering are reminiscent of the Rider-Waite deck in style (without the severely dark imagery), and anyone who has seen that deck more than once will recognize that. It looks like it was fun for Robert Kasher to illustrate it, and that sense of lightheartedness is definitely contagious. (Coincidence or not, my first reading was quite positive!)

   I doubt any serious tarot reader will use this as a primary deck, but for the curious baseball enthusiast or occasional reader (or both!), this deck is a great start. Non-baseball fans or international users should still enjoy using it, but to them it may be just another novelty deck. But for me, it was the perfect deck for a midsummer night's reading.

1. If you are new to blackjack, this book will save you many hours of trying to memorize tables and charts contained in longer books. Braids provides an illustrated easy to use guide to casino play, with two simple logical rules for quickly reasoning the correct play of any hand. Also his explanation of card counting is the clearest I've ever read. I now understand the underlying logic behind the many counting systems out there. You will find blackjack strategies much less confusing after reading this book.
