This is Kim Krans's own official site listing for The Wild Unknown Tarot Deck and Guidebook, published by HarperElixir in 2016. As the creator's own official listing it is the correct source for the deck's actual creator and release year; its own text names the general "Harper Collins" relationship rather than the specific HarperElixir imprint, which is confirmed instead by a bookseller's structured listing carrying the same publication year and ISBN. It also records concrete, checkable content: the 78-card deck, 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana in the standard Rider-Waite-Smith structure, replaces the tradition's familiar human figures with animals, plants and landscapes, and it began as a self-published 2012 edition before HarperElixir's wider release. Its limit is that a creator's own site is self-presented promotional material, not an independent critical assessment of the deck's significant influence on the 2010s tarot revival, so a claim about that broader influence needs a source engaging that history directly.
