It'excellent! You'll like it! What are you waiting for?, 6 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Heart of Midnight (Ravenloft) (Paperback)
After finishing I, Strahd:The Memoires of a Vampire and Vampire of the Mists, I chose Heart of Midnight to be the third in my Ravenloft collection. Well, it was a good decision!
Robert King summons all the monsters and freaks of Ravenloft to build up an excellent story with haunted memories and an evil curse. The storyline has many unexpected events, such as the death of
Gustav or the relation between Casimir and Lukas.
This IS really a world of darkness, because all the people, who are good in part, become dead or corrupted.
King is a master of human mind: in a world of decay only the creatures can survive, who don't conceal their evil and let it guide them, even to commit some murder...
Ah, yes! The epilogue is the best I've ever read, it is a real accurate one. I don't tell more about it...
Why I gave four stars? Honestly the episodes in the Kartakan Inn were not the best! Too fussy, too
slow, too monochrome! But the book is great, so read it!

Ravenloft Novel from top to toe, 10 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Heart of Midnight (Ravenloft) (Paperback)
A very entertaining novel about a young werewolf who seeks revenge on the murderer of his mother. Contains all ingedients to belong to the Ravenloft Novel serie but is sometimes a bit predictable and therefore I gave it three stars.

not half bad..., 20 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Heart of Midnight (Ravenloft) (Paperback)
Hmph. Ravenloft books tend to be sorta pointless exercises because they're not really HORROR; they're just fantasy with werewolves and vampires. This at least tries. It can be somewhat tedious, but all in all it actually works as horror, to an extent. And the ending's great.
