Reception
Gideon Kibblewhite reviewed 'Dark Knight of Karameikos' for 'Arcane' magazine, rating it a 7 out of 10 overall. He notes that "Timothy Brown is director of game development at TSR and so was a major player in the creation of Mystara, the setting for this, his first novel." He calls the novel "exciting, though not original" and adds: "If the tale of revenge, self-doubt and ultimate courage is an ordinary one, it is also well-told and pacey, and builds to a breathless ending." Kibblewhite ends his review by saying: "'Dark Knight of Karameikos' provides a rich vein of source material as well. The author's descriptive flair and his attention to detail adds much flesh to this world. There is much information to be had about its history and culture which is particularly important if players want to be knights running about in shining armour. Required reading for selfless heroes."
