... and it's available separately as a cost-effective twosome with it's bigger sibling... Now if only Camoin would publish his book in English. *sigh* Scion

Thanks, Kissa! I ordered two since I have a friend in States who will want one....came to $41.00 for in US$ (that includes shipping) terri Since I do read with my Camoin, what a handy way to carry a spare deck.

Kissa ... thanks for the news. By the way, that webpage mentions: "Note to readers of Whitley Strieber's new book "The Path": this is the deck used in his book." Anyone heard of this author or this book? Thanks.

but I'm hoping Marseilles fans will be able to tell me about the deck and the book as well! Regards Cerulean

How mini is "mini"? That is to ask, how small is this deck? Dimensions anyone?

Yes - Strieber is a bestselling author on aliens, etc. He writes that his "visitors," which I think he deems to be advanced beings on par with "masters," showed him how the Tarot (esp Marseille images) map out this spiritual path for the initiate. I'm toying with buying it. He has a website as well. You can GOOGLE yourself there. ;)

You can order the book at the Unknown Country Website I think I'm allowed to post that site, in that I am not it's owner.

LOL Yeah, actually we share an agent... :) Prior to his "alien visitation" period (beginning with Communion and Majestic), Streiber was most famous as the author of The Hunger and Wolfen. A terrific pulp fiction writer who has since moved into more esoteric writng which he claims as non-fiction.
