ADVENTURE BEGINS HERE BOOKS are more than just story books. They are adventure gamebooks played using dice. Each book in the series involves a quest that the main character needs to complete. There are numerous paths that can be taken in order to fulfil the quest, however each path contains different puzzles, items to be found and monsters to be defeated. The gaming system is sophisticated enough to provide the player with choices of how they are going to allocate the limited resources available to acquire equipment such as weapons and armour while being simple enough to allow the reader to start playing the game very quickly. The game system also uses a skills based system which allows the player to choose whether they will focus on magic, combat or stealth. Download and print out an adventure sheet on which to track progress throughout the game, for example recording items that have been acquired. If the main character is defeated before completing the quest, the story will end in a gruesome death scenes. For example: "The cockroach sinks its fangs into your leg. Your wounds are so great that you collapse and, as you lie dying from loss of blood, the cockroaches lay eggs in your motionless body. When they eventually hatch, they consume your dead body from the inside. Your adventure ends here." "An undead priest stabs you with the dagger and blood spurting from the wound, you collapse to the floor. Your body is dragged to the altar and the undead priest uses foul magic to reanimate your corpse. You end your adventure as a mindless zombie in eternal service of an undead priest."

This book was released on 2023-07-13 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The villages of Lentari are in big trouble. Dragons have swooped in, inexplicably blasting homes and businesses with fire, nearly burning the town of Verdayn to the ground. No one knows what is behind the attacks—the dragons and humans have been allies for a long time. Suspicions point to an outside force. Something or someone has bewitched the dragons into committing the heinous acts. King Kri’Entu doesn’t quite know where to turn for answers. Until his son volunteers to lead the investigation. Crown Prince Mikal is now a young man, bored with court life and wanting to take an active part in his father’s work. He convinces the king to allow him to travel to Verdayn to find out what happened. His first stop is to speak with the town constable, and Mikal finds himself suddenly enchanted with the constable’s pretty daughter, Lissa. Forcing himself to keep his mind on business, he takes the villagers’ statements and is quickly off to the site of yet another dragon attack. All of this seems to be leading in one direction. There’s a rogue wizard on the loose, and Mikal is stunned to learn the talented conjurer is close to his own age. How did one so young learn the skills to create more complex spells than the elder wizards, and to control creatures as mighty as dragons? And why is he doing this? The quest to find the wizard and to stop the attacks takes Mikal and Lissa, with help from the young dragon, Pravara, into dangerous waters indeed.
