Every door you open, every creature you encounter and every choice you make is brought vividly to life.

Listen to the opening passage from The Warlock of Firetop Mountain here:

Descend into the labyrinth beneath Firetop Mountain, where every corridor whispers, every monster growls and every decision could be your last. Choose your path, roll the dice, battle deadly creatures and search for the keys to Zagor’s treasure as the story unfolds around you.

The Howl of the Werewolf heard in Finland

Howl of the Werewolf, by Jonathan Green, is published today for the first time in Finnish, by Epic Ermine. Just in time for Halloween.

Only a fool would willingly enter Lupravia, a bleak realm of hungry predators. But you're on your way there because you have no other choice. 

You have been the target of a giant wolf's rage and now you feel strange powers growing inside you. The werewolf's curse will turn you into a beast among beasts unless you find a cure before the next full moon.

Will you be able to save yourself in a land ruled by darkness, where everyone trembles at the sound of the werewolf's chilling howl?

In this book, YOU are the hero. All you need is a pencil and an eraser - and you're ready for adventure. You decide which route you take, which creatures you fight, and which deadly trials to undertake. This gamified, interactive book will captivate even those who are otherwise not interested in reading. The book has enough alternative storylines for multiple playthroughs. And the book's stunning illustrations are by world-renowned artist Martin McKenna.

With the publication of Ihmissuden Kirous, Howl of the Werewolf is now available in six different languages - English, Portuguese, French, Spanish, Danish, and Finnish.

If you are a Finnish fan of Fighting Fantasy gamebooks, or a hardcore collector, you can pick up a copy of Ihmissuden Kirous here.
