Huge thanks to all the folks at Sunstone for this opportunity. This is truly an honor. And to have Greg Prince's cover story be about owning your religion is absolutely perfect! It's what this project is all about. BTW, I've heard this might be the last printed issue of the magazine. They need our support if the magazine is to continue. Let's not make the issue number 187 prophetic. You can support them here: https://www.sunstonemagazine.com/donate/

When will the cards be available for purchase?
I plan on having a grand trumps collector's edition ready for purchase by Summer of 2019. The grand trumps deck will be larger than a traditional deck. It will be printed in a higher quality format and contain the 22 major arcana and a few bonus cards. Archives
