4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good.
Books based on role-playing game systems frequently have their problems, as what makes for a good game doesn't necessarily make for a good story. The White Wolf "World Of Darkness" books are no exception; some of them are quite good, while others are much weaker, but all of them show occasional cracks where the author tries to rationalize game mechanics into the flow of...

3.0 out of 5 stars Magicians battle each other and then a demon Pig
My wife got this for me because she knows I love horror novels. Lord knows I would have skipped it myself. The book is a pleasent enough time waster, but there is a lot of better material out there to pass the time of day with. Worth skipping.

This review is from: Such Pain (World of Darkness. Mage) (Paperback)
Books based on role-playing game systems frequently have their problems, as what makes for a good game doesn't necessarily make for a good story. The White Wolf "World Of Darkness" books are no exception; some of them are quite good, while others are much weaker, but all of them show occasional cracks where the author tries to rationalize game mechanics into the flow of the story. This book does suffer from that problem occasionally, but for the most part, it is a very well-written action-horror story based on the "Mage" game, one of the better of the White Wolf offerings.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you can find it - Buy it., August 6, 2000

This review is from: Such Pain (World of Darkness. Mage) (Paperback)
I was very sceptical about this book which I bought for the equivalent of $1 in a bargain bookshop in the UK(where I live). I have never been so glad about taking a risk on a book in my life. It is exciting from start to finish. I would read it again if I hadn't misplaced it!
