inbetweenthelines's review against another edition
3.0
One of the books I have managed to do.
I've had the book set since early 2000, and this is one of the books that near the beginning i kept dying.
I wouldn't say this is for the younger ones, more so for a little bit older. It's harder compared to the ones before it, and at some times be a little bit frustrating.
But don't get me wrong. it's a fantastic gamebook and somewhat rewarding XD

Perhaps the most richly-written of Jackson's gamebooks (outside of the lush Sorcery! series), but let down a little by experiments with the medium which, whilst interesting at first, become an annoyance on repeated plays.

If the truth is to be known, these books are fun at first. Sadly, however, they quickly grow old.
If you have experienced one of these kinds of books you have experienced them all. Whilst the stories differ, the effect they have upon a person is the same across the board. You have fun for a while and then they are put aside.
It is okay to pick up one or two throughout your life but I would not recommend going out of your way to buy them en masse. As for which one(s) you pick up… well, that is a choice only you can make.
