BUYING ADVISORY: EL – ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

You are the main character of this story, and you have a lot of difficult decisions to make as you try to find your way back home from the Underdark. While it may not be easy, your adventure will never be boring as you find the right creatures to ally with and the right creatures to slay before they eat you!

Choose your own adventure books are the video games of literature. This story is compelling as you make escape plans and figure out if you would survive such a predicament. I was surprised how some choices led me in directions I didn’t expect—Forbeck kept me on my toes the whole time.
