About this listen

 A party of adventurers must brave the horrors of Ravenloft in this official Dungeons & Dragons novel!

Five strangers armed with steel and magic awaken in a mist-shrouded land, with no memory of how they arrived: Rotrog, a prideful orcish wizard; Chivarion, a sardonic drow barbarian; Alishai, an embittered tiefling paladin; Kah, a skittish kenku cleric; and Fielle, a sunny human artificer.

After they barely survive a nightmarish welcome to the realm of Barovia, a carriage arrives bearing an invitation:

Fairest Friends,

I pray you accept my humble Hospitality and dine with me tonight at Castle Ravenloft. It is rare we receive Visitors, and I do so Endeavor to Make your Acquaintance. The Carriage shall bear you to the Castle safely, and I await your Arrival with Pleasure.

Your host,
Strahd von Zarovich

With no alternative, and determined to find their way home, the strangers accept the summons and travel to the forbidding manor of the mysterious count. But all is not well at Castle Ravenloft. To survive the twisted enigmas of Strahd and his haunted home, the adventurers must confront the dark secrets in their own hearts and find a way to shift from strangers to comrades—before the mists of Barovia claim them forever.

Narration is very enjoyable to listen and her voice acting of different characters makes it very entertaining.

Enjoyable enough story.

Strahd has been done so many times its hard to do it from an original take.

There were some genuinely good bits like the very start of the book and about 5 others throughout the book.

Many of the set pieces were very predictable and the author seemed to have gone off script about 2/3 into the book.

I suspect the fact that they gender bended Strahd from Male to Female was really the main purpose of the book and the plot or lack of it was the vehicle to drive that acorss the river.

All of that to say that it was a fun book but sorely lacking in page turning power

Weak story but enjoyable - spoilers included

I apreciate how this blends Dnd campaign settings, how players act in dnd and dnd rules into a full novel that reads as a book on its own.

gripping, great charaters and narrative
