BRIAN FROUD
For over 30 years, Brian Froud has been regarded as the pre-eminent faerie artist in the world and an authority on faeries and faerie lore. His international best-selling book, FAERIES with fantasy and Tolkien illustrator Alan Lee is considered a modern classic. His landmark work with Jim Henson as conceptual designer on feature films THE DARK CRYSTAL, LABYRINTH and other Henson projects set new standards for design, puppeteering and animatronics in film and are considered landmarks in the evolution of modern day special effects and attract an international cult following. With over 8 million books sold to date, Brian’s international best sellers include LADY COTTINGTON’S PRESSED FAIRY BOOK, GOOD FAERIES / BAD FAERIES and THE FAERIES’ ORACLE and LADY COTTINGTON’S FAIRY ALBUM. Other works with text by Ari Berk include GOBLINS!, RUNES OF ELFLAND, LADY COTTINGTON PRESSED FAIRY LETTERS and BRIAN FROUD’S WORLD OF FAERIE and THE HEART OF FAERIE ORACLE.
WENDY FROUD
Wendy Froud has been a doll maker since the age of five. Wendy worked as sculptor and puppet builder for Jim Henson for many years, primarily on the films THE DARK CRYSTAL, LABYRINTH and THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. She sculpted “Jen” and “Kira” for THE DARK CRYSTAL and fabricated “Yoda” for THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK. Other work for Jim Henson included THE MUPPET SHOW and THE MUPPET MOVIE. Wendy’s dolls and figures are highly sought after and are in many prestigious collections around the world. Her work has been featured in three books created with fantasy author Terri Windling: A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S FAERY TALE, THE WINTER CHILD and THE FAERIES OF SPRING COTTAGE. Reproductions of her dolls have been created by Sideshow Collectibles. Her first book, THE ART OF WENDY FROUD was published in 2006 by Imaginosis.

Incomplete deck
I love this app but it should be the full deck! How is one supposed to do an accurate reading with only a portion of what is available? I bought this so I wouldn't have to take my full deck with me everywhere.
That aside, I like the layout. It has never crashed for me.
not full deck
Wonderful app! It would be nice if it contained the full deck, but it doesn't and for that reason I will give only 1 star.
complaints:
-not full deck
-should allow one to save a reading in the app
-should use gestures
-should allow music to be turned off
Elegantly Designed Divination App
The interface is flawless! I showed my app developer spouse and he thought so, too. That said, I have 3 suggestions to make it even better.
W1. Full deck included in the app 2. Turn off the sound. 3. Greater choices of card spreads beyond either 1 or 3-card.
