Review Summaries
"A spoiled heiress finds herself trapped in world where each person is represented by a tarot card. That person is based on a rock star (for example, "The Fool" is Mick Jaggar). The heroine must learn a lesson from each card in order to become a whole and fulfilled person. It sounds serious, but this book is written as a parody. Kind of like the Piers Anthony Xanth novels, or Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."
Theresa Abrams, Resident Staci Layne Wilson Scholar
