So, my mystery reddit Santa was amazing, and did research!

First, the Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Believe it or not, I've never read it all. Ever. I started on the first book a few times but never really got around to finishing the whole thing. Next up, the Cyberiad, which is a book that seems to be right up my alley but I'd never encountered!

Then, what I thought was a group of islands, because I'd looked at the cards from the back forward. The top card? A Gaea's Cradle. The story behind this is that I had lost mine some years ago in a move from the UK to the States. I think I almost cried, not because of the card necessarily or the value, but, because it just hit the right spot. That card was a weird sore spot because the trip from the UK to the US was an ending of a relationship as well, or the beginning of an end anyway. Losing that card (the decks that were contained in the box) was sort of a large blow in all that. They were the first decks I had built.
