Hi Rhiannon,
I must say that I wasn't overly impressed with the book. For starters, the author repeatedly says that it's for advanced readers but then asserts things that she doesn't explain. You would think that a book that is truly for advanced readers would explain the reasoning behind things. One example (and I hope I'm remembering correctly because I don't have the book in front of me) is when she's talking about timing. She says that Pentacles are the "youngest" suit and represent times closer to ours, but she never says why. I would think that Pentacles would be the oldest because the Earth has been here for a really long time.
The meat of the book is the spreads, but I didn't find those fulfilling either. Of course, since the book is about Past Life and Karma, a lot of the spreads focus on that. However, after a while, the spreads ceased to be that different from each other. They kept covering the same information.
The section on methods to access past lives in other ways was altogether too short, and it really didn't tie in too much with the spreads.
Like I said, I was disappointed. But this Queen of Swords could just be overly picky.
