Review: I wouldn't say this is the "Ultimate Guide" to Tarot. In fact, it's riddled with errors (grammatical and, for example, for IXX The Sun, it talks about the next card coming up as being XX The World when card XX is in fact Judgement, with XXI being The World. As other reviewers have also pointed, there are also some errors with the Astrological associations so it doesn't instill confidence if you're a beginner looking for a reliable source of information. You'll find yourself scratching your head and questioning things, wanting to cross reference other books. Further, some card meanings feel lacking in something. It touches on things such as Kabbala and Astrology but doesn't explain their significance or relevance. There's a lot of wasted space and it feels like the book favours looking pretty over providing much substance. A lot of people seem to like it from the reviews on here so if you feel drawn to it, go for it - it's not awful but I feel there are better, more reliable books out there. Given the price and the Liz Dean's career and experience, it's unacceptable for there to be so many errors. I've had to send it back as far as I can tell, it isn't fit for purpose and doesn't live up to its name - which is a shame, because I really wanted to like this book.
