I did a search and I can't find any detailed discussion of this deck. It seems pretty to me, but from some reviews I read I know some people don't like it. Does anyone have or use this deck? Would you recommend it? -- Kyrielle

I have it. It's pretty, but the art seems like it was hurried through. The Aces and courts are a little bit repetitious but it comes with a nice book detailing the Gods and Goddesses of each card. The details of the Celtic Gods and Goddesses do not to seem to match up the picture on the card which makes me think that the artist had a little artistic license. I used it a few times after I bought it, they worked fine but I'm fickle and like my Legend: Arthurian deck more. I did like the little book more than most books that come with deck sets because of the mythology information. The Majors are also not numbered which was kind of nice. I use it whenever I'm feeling "Celtic-ish". hehe :) I'll recommend it if you really want a simple Celtic deck. (Simple, I mean the artwork isn't busy and it's not loaded with symbolism)
