Puffin Books 1982 Text - Steve Jackson & Ian Livingstone Illustrations - Russ Nicholson Cover - Peter Jones
The Warlock of Firetop Mountain is a different kind of book. As well as the book itself, you will need two dice, a pencil and an eraser: then, armed with these tools, you can become the hero in a perilous quest to find the Warlock’s hidden treasure. The treasure is hidden deep within a dungeon which YOU must explore, populated by monsters which YOU must fight and kill - or be killed in the attempt.
You may not survive your first journey. But with experience, skill and luck, each fresh attempt should bring you closer to your goal...
