Summary: Great Golden
Comment: A throughly enjoyable book with great characters, an interesting plot and the finest Ravenloft author out there. I would not place this novel above Vampire of the Mists although as a fan of both elves and vampires I am a little bit biased. Even I must admit however that in terms of writting style and plot originality this novel does occasionaly surpas Vampire.There were however a few characters who were not as three dimensional as they could have been and I for one would have liked a little more background information on Dragoneyes. Still a very good book and well worth the read.

Summary: One of the Best Ravenloft Novels
Comment: It's a shame when quality fiction goes out of print... and that's what seems to be happening to 'Dance of the Dead.' This is one of the finest novels published as part of TSR's Ravenloft line, and Larissa Snowmane is one of the most memorable figures created for the setting.

I liked Christie Golden's take on Souragne and Anton Misroi so much that when it came time for to rework the Ravenloft game setting for 'Domains of Dread' that I made sure the land was reshaped to be closer to the novel than it had been in previous presentation.

If you have an interest in dark fantasy or the gothic horror genre, track down a copy of this book. You won't regret it.

Summary: One of the Better Ravenloft Novels
Comment: Dance of the Dead was probably the Ravenloft novel I enjoyed the most. Instead of focusing on some Omnipotent Beings angst-ridden fight against themselves, the book focuses on the life and mind of a 'normal' person native to the Plane. The book moves a bit slow, avoiding the combat heavy tactics favored in most D&D novels to distract you from the paper thin characterization, and takes its time showing you who the heroine is through her actions. This is a good thing. By the end of the book, it is fairly easy to identify with her. I reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys tone and mood over displays of gore.
