This deck is one of the despised soulless decks produced by Italian Tarot Burgermeister Lo Scarabeo.  The artwork by Luca Raimondo is not unattractive for the most part.  Drawing exclusively, as the name denotes, on the Greek mythologies, the deck is extremely masculine, warlike and aggressive, seldom if ever giving any cursory wave to traditional tarot interpretation, but not really bothering to go the distance to create its own them of interpretation. 

I found the deck to be uninspired and tired with very little to offer the Tarot world. 

I do quite like the backs, so I can say the deck was enjoyable until I flipped over the card to interpret it... or not.

I give it:

1 pentacles out of 5
(1 for the backs)
