I'll just take a guess that the "dank" on page 216 is supposed to be "dark" ;) It was a good read, not too long, not too short.
SPOILER
Not entirely sure how I feel about the ending. Still undecided on whether it's supposed to be a happy ending or not. But I guess.. Yes? There are still quite the amount of options I didn't explore, so I might give it another read, just for exploration purposes. All in all, I'd say this is a solid 8.5/10, mainly because of the original twist. |

I really enjoyed how the story's setting always kept changing, and found the

That being said, I will complete the game once more, because I suspect that the ending I got isn't the only one, and would like to see how things turn out if I do things somewhat differently. |

That was great. The extensive choices made for great gameplay, not to mention an ingenious plot. I am curious as to the final piece of information you can provide to the Council and the 5th wizard in Swamp as I seem to have missed them. The battles were perfect for any skill. There were perhaps excessive luck checks, but maybe that was just the path I took. Great job with the smattering of insta-losses near the end. Overall, great and worth recommending. Grade: 99 |

Oh, you have taken me back to my boyhood. A very substantial piece of work, with a good twist that I didn't see coming! Thank you. |

Really good book. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I often wonder if an actual barbarian would refer to himself as a 'barbarian' though. This was one the good ones to be honest. It never got frustrating, the difficulty felt just right. |

My mini-quest of playing through all of Kieran's works is now complete! With that, I might as well give a personal ranking for all of them. * A Princess Of Zamarra * The Word Fell Silent * A Strange Week For King Melchion The Despicable * Hunger Of The Wolf * A Knight's Trial * Waiting For The Light * A Midwinter Carol You can tell that this story is Kieran's first work as the writing style is notably less sharp, the characters less memorable and, of course, the story much more linear than in the works I rated above it, not to mention more altogether conventional than pretty much anything he wrote since. There are also some contrived moments the later works tend to be much better at avoiding.
SPOILER
At the same time, it is still a perfectly good high fantasy adventure, with a fairly diverse range of creatures and encounters involved throughout. I particularly liked the Firefox and manticore fights mechanically (and a felinaur one stylistically), but there were enough other neat encounters as well, all reasonably balanced. Now, proofreading: 119 "and a woman and her two daughter are sheltering" 172 "to see a red and blue parrot perched on a nearby branch . 'Follow me,' " (extra space) + perhaps "trying to decide what route" (not which?) 271 "Eventually you emerge on to the balcony" 296 "A group or orcs that had been" 399 "done you,' you ask." (should be a ? instead of a ,)? 349 - might misspell the name of a Council's member. There are also quite a few moments which seem to be missing dashes where they would have come in handy: i.e. "a rather repulsive looking" at 116. |

| Not technically my first work as I'd submitted a number of 50 section gamebooks for various competitions prior to this, but definitely an earlyish work - a lot of the content was reused in my later Revenant Rising - for better or worse. |
