lannthacker's review against another edition
3.0
In the style of Choose Your Own Adventure with some added elements, including comic panels and a nonfiction section to give you, the reader, a better chance at surviving to the one successful ending. Fast-paced, plot-driven. Great for 8-12 year old reluctant readers. The back cover of the book gives the reader a chance to jump right into the action. Of course, several of the endings include death or injury so this isn't sensitive readers.
