Reception
Rick Swan reviewed When Black Roses Bloom for Dragon magazine #221 (September 1995). He calls the adventure "engaging", and states: "The principal encounters, which take place inside the mirrors, not only challenge the party's tactical skills, but also reveal tantalizing bits of the Dragonlance mythos."
