I thought I'd start a thread on this upcoming deck, as I've been so excited by the prospect of it since Sidhe-Ra let slip that it is in the pipeline!
For those who didn't see the thread, this will be a new edition of the Greenwood, put together by Mark Ryan (the original author, along with Chesca Potter) and John Matthews. The illustrator is rumoured to be Virginia Lee.
*Is this accurate so far, Em?*
Anyway, I thought it would be good to have a thread where any hopes and comments can be made, and any concrete news posted *umm .... Sidhe-Ra?*
One thing I'm curious about is the input of John Matthews. After all, he is (as far as I know) primarily a Celtic scholar, whereas the original strap-line of the Greenwood described the deck's content as "Pre-Celtic Shamanism of the Mythic Forest". Does this mean the focus will shift a little, I wonder?
