Another triumph from Jon Green
I've been a fan of fighting fantasy now for decades (being a 30 year old fantasy buff) and remember when the series came to a saddening end in the mid 90's. luckily, in part thanks to jonathan green, the series has been ressurected (twice), and as a result, new gamebooks are on the go. Stormslayer is the third newie from green, after the excellent bloodbones and even better howl of the werewolf, and it's another triumph of storytelling and design. I love how the series has progressed, especially the detail of paragraphs which used to be just a few words in the old days, now their far fuller and really help immerse you in the story. I'm probably in the minority but i didnt think the illustrations were quite up to the previous two's quality, but they were still good, and on a personal note, i absolutely loved the challenging enemies of past, i thought the final opponent here was a little too easy to defeat (i'd just personally love a return to a final baddie with skill 13 plus but thats just a personal gripe) but on the whole, it's a great book, with an absorbing quest and cant wait for the next one! Keep it up and hope to read many more in the future!

Great fun
I'm pretty new to the genre but have really enjoyed this book and am keen to start looking out more in the series. It's something different to your standard novel and I love the extra challenge it presents.
