The cards are not shrink wrapped, and they came loose in the box. My deck arrived with several damaged cards, due to unstable packaging. For now, I've kept the decks separate, but housed in the same bag together. The cards are the same size as The Faeries' Oracle (3" x 5"), which makes it easy to blend the decks if you want to have a Super Sized Froud Faerie Deck. The set is comprised of a hardcover book and 68-card deck. They feel more earthy than their cousins of the first deck. They have a different quality to them which is hard to describe. The cards are every bit as magical and enchanting as the first deck. And relationships with anything you can have a relationship with in life, which encompasses just about anything and everything.
Relationships between humans, between faeries, between humans and faeries. The Heart of Faerie is about the heart of faerie, as in the center of what makes the fae tick. I am thrilled to say that I was not disappointed on either count. I hoped it wouldn't be that limiting, and I hoped the deck would be as enchanting as his first. But I wondered, due to the name of the deck, if it would be a deck designed to work only with relationship issues. I couldn't wait to see a whole new set of cards with Froud's magical faerie touch. When I heard he was creating a second oracle deck titled The Heart of Faerie Oracle, I had mixed emotions. I am a huge fan of Brian Froud's The Faeries' Oracle.
