The Cold Heart Of Chaos
I've added Al Sander's gamebook to the site for online play. MS Word and text versions can be found on the downloads page. |

Wow great story! Will there be another? |
Probably not, as it's been nearly eight years now. There are other gamebooks by Al Sander around, though. At this site, there is Beggars Of Blacksand which I think is the pick of the bunch. He also won the Windhammer prize in 2008 with Raid On Chateau Fekenstein, and the official site has Deathtrap Overlord, Blacksand Assassin and Assault On The Fortress Of Evil, which I think were all entries to various competitions. |

I like the tests of Stamina. There are times in life that neither Skill nor Luck get you through, but rather your ability to just endure without collapsing. Well done. |

Good one, but a bit too few choices. |

Basically on this run I just rolled the dice: for SKILL and LUCK first and then for fighting the Snow Wolves...:-( |

A decent adventure, certainly phsically taxing for the dwarf. |

I remember finishing this one previously and finding it not too hard, and sure enough it wasn't that bad, indeed sinse I had good attribute scores it was almost a forgone conclusion, I really wish there had been more choice. More than that though, this really feels either like a prologue or end to a much larger book than something stand alone, plus I confess the similarities in the plot and setting to the absolutely magnificen t Windhammer over on chronicles of arborell were a little on the nose too.
Certainly not bad, but not really enough to say much about. |
This was an entry in one of Dave Holt's competitions back in 2004. The brief was that it should "only be a taster of a larger epic quest", which I think explains the way that the final paragraph is worded. |

This is NOT Fairly easy, I've not got more than 7 sections in before death on 15 attempts.
Either that, or the dice rolls are Rather unbalanced. |

Good story, well written. Enjoyed this a great deal! |

I think that this format of adventure, short and full of action, suits particularly well this way of playing on line. |
