The best dark fantasy I have ever read!,
By A Customer
This review is from: I Strahd (Ravenloft) (Mass Market Paperback)
Honestly it's a bit difficult for me to write a review about this book, because I bet I won't findanything bad about it. It's just perfect as it is! The story is framed by an excellent prologue and epilogue, that creates a fantastic atmosphere for this haunting tale: Rudolph Van Richten, the old vampire hunter sneaks into the castle of Strahd Von Zarovich, the Lord of Barovia and reads his diary, revealing the tragedy and fate of the mighty vampire. Strahd sacrified his life to acquire more and more power and honour, but forgot about the most important: love. He falls in love with Tatyana, the beloved of his brother, but the girl doesn't love Him. The essence of dark fantasy enters the story at this point: Strahd offers the life of his brother to the Evil to get her love... The secret of the Ba'al Verzi assassin, the fate of Tatyana and revenge - some events of the excellent storyline, that are awaiting for the reader to reveal. An excellent book. I admit, that I have read it three times and I like it more and more. Thank You for reading my praises, I hope this review helped you a bit...
3.0 out of 5 stars
A good read,
This review is from: I, Strahd: The Memoirs of a Vampire (Ravenloft: the Covenant) (Paperback)
Easy, straight forward book, I savoured its likeness within hours. I remember I read it in one go ages ago. I can remember only a bit of the character in depth of Strahd, though no one else. I can't say that I was thrilled. My advice if you want to save money go one with the other Ravenloft books (Vampire of the Mists will award you.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Okay, but flawed,
By Tracy (Oxfordshire, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Strahd (Ravenloft) (Mass Market Paperback)
This book started well, setting the scene and developing the characters. However, Strahd's downfall felt rushed and the narrative workmanlike thereafter. This might have been a deliberate attempt to show his state of mind, but I found it unengaging and, ultimately, disappointing.
