The Book of Azathoth Tarot      2012 Nemo      USA                                                   Art Medium: Pen drawings. Description: Azathoth is a deity in the Cthulhu Mythos and Dream Cycle stories of H. P. Lovecraft which was used in novels by a number of later writers. He describes his deity in 1926 in 'The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath', "Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth". This tarot draws on the imagery from Lovecraft's complex mythology. The Minors follow the pattern of imagery established in the Rider Waite deck.
