He was a businessman, setting up a folding table on a Berkeley street where a stream of passersby could bring him as much as a hundred dollars a day when the weather was right. But he was beginning to notice more and more that what he had learned to predict from his cards seemed to be coming to pass with an unsettling regularity. It made him do odd things. Like stop teenage Heather Wellington's tarot at nine cards instead of ten. The first eight had been ominous, the ninth more upbeat, so Warren simply stopped the reading there. It was only after Heather had left that he looked at number ten -- it was the Death card. 261 pages ISBN: 0312339062 We use industry standard packaging Items are sent promptly and well packed Multi-Buy discounts available Please do check our other listings Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
