The writing style is relaxed and the topics is presented in an approachable way. But, this is very much a beginner’s package at a level just beyond Google search.The first book, and note that this package is two separate, though ultimately related, books – is short. It comes in at about 30% of the total release. There is an introduction, a brief history of Kabbalah and an exploration of some of the main aspects. There is a paragraph on each of the ten sephirot then a 2-page conclusion. A 3rd page is given over to a plea for feedback.Then about 15% is for what amounts to advertising; other books by the author and some pages on the author herself.At the 55% point begins the second short e-book, Tarot Cards for Beginners. And it is definitely that – more of a popular exploration of the tarot rather than a scholarly review – fine enough. Even so, the given history is a pencil sketch at best, claiming roots to of the Tarot can be found in Nordic runes. That’s a bit like saying the roots of Facebook can be found in the invention of punched cards – you’re not wrong, but… it’s a missed opportunity.The Major Arcana cards each get about a paragraph (The Fool gets over a page, however). This is barely enough to cover the popular interpretations; nothing on reversals or surrounding cards or combinations and, I will address this more, nothing on the relationship between the Tarot and the Kabbalah. I understand that if these other topics were covered at length then this would be a non-beginner’s book, but a roadmap for the reader would be useful if one were to explore further.After those 22 paragraphs come 6 pages for the other 56 cards – except they are only summarized as groups of suits.
