The Warlock of Firetop Mountain abridged book from 2002. Where did it come from.?
I bought the book from a charity shop. It's the Warlock of Firetop Mountain by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone. To my suprise when I got it home I noticed that it is an abridged version and stops half way through at the river. The book turns out to be a sample book to give readers a 'taster' of what adventure gamebooks are like. On the back it does actually say 'Sample book.Not for resale.' Everything about the book is the same (Cover, rules. adventure sheet) it just stops halfway through.
My question is, does anyone know where these 'smple' books were distributed. i.e freebies in bookshops, magazines, newspapers, internet, competition, affiliate promtional item. Any help and weblinks to back up answers if possible would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
They were given away to promote the series. Some were sold at Games Workshop.
The book was half written bt Steve Jackson and the other by Ian Livingstone, although Jackson rewrote Livingstone's part to match his own writing style.
