Customer Reviews

"The nostalgia effect of the choose your own adventure is pretty cool in itself. The adult twist of japanese myth and lots of death (including your own) makes it even more exciting than I remember these being."

 

"An exciting blend of Japanese myth and horror mystery and the choice of whether you live or die.
Choose wisely."

 

"The frustration is part and parcel of the 'choose your own adventure' tradition and it is well executed here. Smart thinking will be required and it is well worth making a few notes as you make your way through the story. You will no doubt die multiple times as you play through the story, but that is all part of the nostalgic fun."

 

"I can't even describe how much I love this book. Choose your own adventure books were amazing as a kid, and now as an adult they just got so much better. Jacob Prytherch has amazing prose, and a very creative mind, you can tell that he loves telling stories. Each one of his books I read is better than the last. I have and will continue to recommend this book to everyone that loves a good scare."
