Necronomicon Tarot
In the early 20th century, legendary horror writer H.P. Lovecraft described an ancient tome as "the unmentionable Necronomicon of the mad Arab Abdul Alhazred...a book which I had never seen, but of which I had heard monstrous things whispered. Best-selling author Donald Tyson wove themyriad rumours and whispers of Lovecraft's dread grimoire into the epic fantasy novels "Necronomicon" and "Alhazred". Intended as a trilogy, this tarot completes Tyson's formidible work. The Necronomicon Tarot brings the phantasmagoric desert wanderings of Alhazred to life in a stunningly visceral deck and companion book. 78 captivating illustrations by fantasy artist Anne Stokes capture the mythic and monstrous world of Tyson's world while remaining true to the underlying structure and tradition of tarot. Prepare to enter a world where the accursed and tormented poet wanders in search of the greatest and darkest magic - divination with the dead.
