Midwinter's Eve in the year 1000. The Day of Judgement is at hand. This is the moment you have devoted your life to preparing for. Before you lie the ruins of Spyte, the city of magicians which no mortal has entered in over two centuries. The ultimate mysteries of creation were unlocked here. Secrets that could break reality apart and forge a new universe - for good or evil. And in the darkening sky above: five baleful stars, the celestial forms of the True Magi. They mean to reincarnate themselves and rule over a world enslaved. Only you, armed with the Sword of Life, can stop them. * * * Blood Sword can be played either solo or in a team of up to four people, providing the most exciting challenge yet in fantasy adventures, combining the best of role-playing, novels and tabletop games. What reviewers are saying: "A beautifully wrought and utterly fantastic epic quest..." "A blast from start from finish." "Easily one of the best gamebooks out there."
