Rating: Summary: A very impressive book. Really impressed me Review: Normally you would think that a little soft cover book like heart of midnight wouldn't be very good. This one is different. It is an amazing book. After I finished the book I just kinda sat there in thought and amazement. Still to this day I think of it and just smile. The ending is the absolute best I have ever read. Its about a young man's troubles growing up being a werewolf. I am not going to give you too much info..just go buy the book..its cheap and a very good book
Rating: Summary: So so book, but doesn't belong in Ravenloft... Review: This book was mostly a waste of time. Way too many poems and songs. I remember one song spanned several pages. Sorry but if I wanted to read lyrics or poetry I'd read the book of Psalms in the Bible. Besides that, this book just didn't really feel like it belonged in the Ravenloft series. If you are considering reading this book, I'd say don't bother. Get "Vampire of the Mists", "I, Strahd", or "Knight of the Black Rose" instead. All that said, this book was still better than "Carnival of Fear" in my opinion.

Rating: Summary: MUCH better than others have touted it to be Review: Though I have read more than review about this book that claimed it to be fantastic, I had read many more denouncing it. Thus, when I cracked the cover of HoM, I was tentative. If I have one thing to say to those who have publicly claimed this book awful, it would be this:Fools! Heart of Midnight proved to be one of the best books I have ever read, probably one of my favorite RL books thus far. I found it much more entertaining than the supposedly perfect Vampire of the Mists (still, that, too, was a great book) and the equally-praised Dance of the Dead (again, it was still good). Not knowing the entire continuity setup of Ravenloft past the fact that only 2 books and one MC entry are considered non-canon (this isn't one of them), I cannot point out any errors at this time. From this book, I entered once more the domain of Harkon Lukas, a darklord I had found before to be rather silly, but after reading this book, thoroughly enjoy now. After I finish readin! g Death of a Darklord (another highly-criticized RL novel), I will review it as well. I can only hope that it is as good as HoM was to me.
