About the author
Joe Dever
231 books173 followersJoe Dever was an award-winning British fantasist and game designer. Originally a musician, Dever became the first British winner of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Championship of America in 1982.
He created the fictional world of Magnamund as a setting for his Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. In 1984 he released the first book of the Lone Wolf series of young-adult gamebooks, and the series has since sold over 10.2 million copies worldwide. He experienced difficulty with his publishers as the game books market began to contract in 1995, until publication ceased in 1998 before the final four books (numbers 29-32) were released. Since 2003, however, the series has enjoyed a strong revival of interest in France, Italy, and Spain following the re-release of the gamebook series in these countries.
From 1996 onwards, Dever was involved in the production of several successful computer and console games. He also contributed to a Dungeons & Dragons-style role playing game for Lone Wolf published by Mongoose Publishing (UK) in 2004. Currently he is Lead Designer of a Lone Wolf computer game, and he is writing the final books in the Lone Wolf series. No official publication schedule exists for these works.

Fun, old school gamebook by the author of the Lonewolf series in an postapocalyptic setting. Same brilliant rulessystem and even cooler setting. Highly recommended!

Thrilling, tense, great pacing, and atmospheric with a dose of sympathy once you encounter the family with the log cabin. The best entry in the four book series and a favorite denizen in my childhood memory.

Riletto a distanza di 30 anni. Patisce il peso degli anni. Quelli che sono passati. Sempre bello
