Intriguing topic and world; Williams seems knowledgable about Tarot. However the flow of words was a little rough, especially in the beginning. "Like a crushed beer can cast aside by a hungover god..." is an example of some of the disconcerting imagery used. Thankfully it disappeared after the fi...
