Now THIS is more like it!,

This review is from: Ravenloft Gazetteer (Paperback)
The first d20 Ravenloft book was a good effort, in my opinion. However, the second book was a disappointment. This book is much better, in that it really fleshes out the realms that it covers. Not only do we get a more complete view of the people and places in these domains, but iconic characters are fleshed out in more detail. Did you know that Tara Kolyana, who was introduced in the first Ravenloft boxed set, is the current incarnation of Tatyana? We get this by reading her fleshed out background and by a small part of Strahd's background.The only thing that keeps me from giving this product five stars is a misprint under Hazlik's description that would make the reader question his sexuality. Other than this, it is an awesome book!

A Good Buy,
By Carl Ronning (Fergus Falls, MN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ravenloft Gazetteer IV (Paperback)
I've been waiting eagerly for details on the new darklord of Sithicus ever since I read "Spectre of the Black Rose." My only problem with the book was that the elven vampire Lady Adeline, who was mentioned in the section on Valachan, wasn't given an entry of her own in the DM's Notes section. Her entry in the old 2nd Edition accessory "Children of the Night: Vampires" made her out to be a generic elf vampire -- no class specified, just a summary of the old Ravenloft Mostrous Compendium stats. In third edition, *no* vampire who's more powerful than a vampire spawn (or minion, to use a term from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) has no character class. Based on her background, I could see Adeline as a ranger, probably at least seventh- or eighth-level. After all, in third edition being undead doesn't mean you can't be a ranger anymore. I mean, considering she's Urik von Kharkov's tax collector, she's one of the most likely evil NPC's for PC's to butt heads with in Valachan after they've finished trashing a few Black Leopards.

Gave me what I wanted,
This review is from: Ravenloft Gazetteer III (Paperback)
Some people are bashing this book. It gave me what I expected plus some nice extra tidbits. The only valid complaint is it gives an unfair amount of space to one domain while shortchanging the other two. It still does the job of giving you a lot of flavor to add to whatever you do in these domains.Bottom line: I bought it and got what I wanted out of it. It could have been better, but so can all the other books.
