http://nwhyte.livejournal.com/2274954.html[return][return]It's probably the best of the books from a literary point of view, though this is not a high bar. What's particularly pleasing is that most of the choices actually require some thought and analysis and reward careful consideration of the options; and yest a number of the "correct" options are presented as if you have made the wrong choice with duly impending doom, until you turn to the next section and discover that things actually get better. It has also quite a long pathway to victory. There are a couple of fairly straightforward puzzles which verge on actual relevance to the plot. If you are thinking of sampling these, this might be the one to start with. NB that a crucial early transition, from Section 6 to Section 13, makes No Sense At All.

Overall pretty fun. The correct choices felt pretty obvious though. Most of the time I end up dying in choose your own adventure type books. There were also a transition or two depending on which options you picked that were just plain awkward and really didn't fit together. But still fun despite these problems.

I had more fun writing out the pattern of choices than I did actually reading this awful book. If you want to read a horrible waste of time, grab some dice and don't say I didn't warn you.
