I have my Carrion Crown in the mail (thanks you paizo!) so the answer might be in there. Do I need ti purchase these Harrow Deck cards in order to play CC? This is also the first AP I have ever purchased so yeah... all I need is the corebook, beastiary, apg, AP:CC #1, dice and a battlegrid to play it?
Smurf...

You don't need the Harrow Deck to use Harrowing in game (you didn't for Curse of the Crimson Throne either) but they are an awesome game aid.
You might need bestiary2 for Carrion Crown as well, I'm not sure.
Just curious: how does the Harrow Point system (which to my knowledge is akin to APG's Hero Points) in CC relates to CotCT's Harrow Deck reading (which, if I understood correctly, is more like fortune reading)?
In other words, those two systems can be used together? And what does the Harrow Deck (the gaming product) do?

The Harrow point system (at least in CotCT, I havn't gotten to read my CC yet)is a narrower system than hero points. basically, at the beginning of each adventure there is a blurb with "During this adventure your heroes can use harrow points for X, Y, or Z." and getting the first harrow reading of the adventure gives them some harrow points (I think its 1, but may be more) After rereading your post, it seems you already knew this.. what was used in CotCT was the harrow point system...not sure if it was tweaked fro CC though
The harrow deck itself is used both as a fortune telling device similar to a Tarot deck, but the general populace of the world also uses it for a bar game called Towers. The rules for both doing a harrow reading for PCs and how to play the stand alone game towers are in the harrow deck product.

Certainly you could do readings freely, to use the harrow points you'd have to pick which adventure matches each of the attributes.
