The series consists of God of Tarot, Vision of Tarot, and Faith of Tarot.[1]

Reception

[edit]

Greg Costikyan reviewed the series in Ares Magazine #2 and commented that "Tarot is readable and pleasant, no mean feat for a pretty much disconnected series of episodes. Anthony has not yet (I hope) reached his full potential, but Tarot is a pleasant way-station in his path of development."[1]

Rob Bricken of Io9 stated that "the Tarot trilogy is nothing less than Anthony's complete and total exploration of religion, morality, sexuality, politics, education, and goodness knows what else."[2]
