A brand new gamebook from the publisher of Fighting Fantasy!

YOU are Nicholas Fantom, a young reporter in a dangerous and changing world. Dark and mysterious forces lurk on the fringes of civilisation prepared to plunge the world into chaos.

It is London, 1881. A hideous monster is talking the streets, preying on the helpless and the unwary. YOU are despatched by your editor to investigate the case, but even YOU are not prepared for what lies beneath the streets of the East End. YOU must follow the leads, explore underground labyrinths and even fly over Victorian London. Danger lurks beyond ever corner as YOU seek to discover the truth.

During the 1980s Jon worked for Games Workshop as the editor of the White Dwarf and Warlock magazines. He has written or co-authored over 100 books including a series of real-life gamebooks for Andre Deutsch and a series of two-player gamebooks for Methuen. Jon lives in rural Suffolk, but is a life-long Chelsea supporter and admirer of their new owner. He is a frequent visitor to Stamford Bridge, and used to take up his position in The Shed along with the other die-hards on cold winter nights when Chelsea was in the wilderness not wonderland!

During the 1980s Gary worked for a while as the game development manager for Games Workshop, during which time he edited and illustrated the Talisman boardgame, which, for the next four years, was the best-selling fantasy game on the market. His children’s book work has included four full-colour picture books for Dorling Kindersley and the illustrations for Mossflower series by Brian Jacques. Gary currently lives in Normandy where he’s supposed to be renovating an old farmhouse. As a result, he never knows who to cheer for in an international match . . .
