Boring. I realise that the author was trying to parody a bad RPG plot, but it wasn't interesting or humourous.
There were a couple of funny scenes, but most of it was lame.

Sorry Jonny, just my opinion.

Geoff.

Oh thank GOD. I thought I was the only one who read this book and thought it was dull. I felt the author missed the boat on trying to parody a clichéd plot and just delivered a clichéd plot, sprinkled with fairly obvious RPG stereotypes.
