Jolly R. Blackburn reviewed The Complete Fighter's Handbook and The Complete Thief's Handbook in Shadis #4 and said that "Both books offer a wealth of information. Are they worth the price? I would have to say it depends on the individual and the campaign he is playing in. If you find yourself playing certain character classes to the exclusion of others, then these books would probably be greatly appreciated." [2] Stewart Wieck reviewed the product in a 1990 issue of White Wolf along with the Fighter's, Priest's, and Wizard's Handbooks. [3] He highlighted the sections on the Thieves Guilds and the Thief Campaign, noting of the latter that "Of all such sections in any of the Handbooks, the Thief Campaign succeeds most because it presents a number of ideas and approaches that would make the thief a true joy to play." [4]
World of Darkness is a series of tabletop role-playing games, originally created by Mark Rein-Hagen for White Wolf Publishing.

The series ended in 2004, and the reboot Chronicles of Darkness was launched the same year with a new line of games. In 2011, the original series was brought back, and the two have since been published concurrently.
