Reception

Rick Swan reviewed The Complete Druid's Handbook for Dragon magazine #214 (February 1995).^[1] He comments that, of "particular interest to novice players, Pulver uses clear examples to explain the art of playing neutral characters; for instance, a druid won't kill a dragon just because it's evil, but he might if it threatens his forest".^[1] Swan concluded by calling the book: "A satisfying entry in one of TSR's most ambitious projects."^[1]
