Got this book for my Christmas. Certainly a much nicer looking book than the scabby scholastic ff releases. Will have a go the morn when I'm not so knackered and share some thoughts.

OK, two shorties so far. I like the simplicity of life points and your attributes - which are fixed at the start bar a single extra point on one of your skills. As the book progresses, in theory in should get easier as there are quite a lot of skill boosts. I'm not in love with the combat. You have a fixed number of rounds to dispatch your enemy and you have to guess beforehand what you will roll over. Because of the lack of time, you have to guess a high number eventually. (9 or 11). And that's exactly why I diedin my second playthrough. I like the story however, you have a distinct character and u meet lots of interesting people in interesting places. I also liked the puzzle pictures which you had to work out so you knew which reference to turn to (although I failed one of them) I have a feeling the game is very, very linear, which means after another couple of shorties it may get rather tiresome. Still, a decent game book with a lot of thought put into it.
