This is an excellent reading deck and a fun one to learn tarot with, because both the LWB ("little white booklet") and the full size book that comes with it are really well written. Plus, it is just plain fun! Looking through the images I was really impressed. There are some really ingenius ways in which the card's image reflect meaning. They are halloween themed but they all still hold many of the symbolic elements of the tradtional Rider Waite images.
