Excellent,

This review is from: Ravenloft Dungeon Master's Guide: A Ravenloft Core Rulebook (Hardcover)
Let's start by saying I've been a fan of the Ravenloft setting since it first appeard way back in Module I6 by Tracy and Laura Hickman. I've followed the product line up to present, and I must say this is one fine addition to the legacy. The book is essentially a "technique" book. Designed to allow DMs the ability to shape their Ravenloft campaigns as they see fit and set the mood for a truly creepy delve into the Dread mists. The book offers advice on everything from creating your own misty domains and darklords to what types of music can be used to set a perfect gaming atmosphere. I would highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to run a Ravenloft campaign and even to Dungeon Masters who have no intention of ever exploring the Demiplane of Dread. Many of the techniques and methods described can and should be used in any setting. Buy it. Read it. Live it.

Will save you a lot of time and inspire a lot of great stories,
By Scott Rawlings - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ravenloft Dungeon Master's Guide: A Ravenloft Core Rulebook (Hardcover)
I was a bit wary of this book when it came out (why would I need a Dungeon Master's Guide when the Ravenloft Campaign Setting book is perfectly serviceable) but being a fan I picked it up anyways. I wasn't disappointed, this books is full of candy and while you don't need the information par se, it comes in handy. It is a very good highly detailed read. A lot of the information is handy just as a means to streamline your campaign and save you time, such as the NPC generator and town and city creation guide. As with many DMGs there are hints on handling problem players and avoiding the usual pitfalls that might run your story awry. It contains nice artwork as to boot. It is recommended you pick up the Ravenloft Tarroka deck as well, as there is an entire chapter on how to best make use of it, though you can create your own deck based on the description of the cards.
