Space Assassin (Fighting Fantasy, No 12)

Summary: Nice concept, yet a shame...
Review: Andrew Chapman is the sub-author of FF gamebook 12, 'Space Assassin'. Although the idea of casting the reader as an expert assassin was a unique touch to the character - whose mission is to infiltrate a tyrant scientist's spaceship - I found Andrew Chapman's execution of this concept very poor. While it starts off promisingly enough, it soon begins to flounder along the way. It's just not exciting nor as challenging as an assassin's mission should be. Save for some novel quirks, and a few thrilling moments, 'Space Assassin' is little more than a collectors item. Another thing, I found the end paragraph extremely disappointing - as if the author had become bored and detached from writing this gamebook altogether. One star is awarded for an original concept, another devoted to his attempt at broadening the Adventure Sheet to include Guns and Armour. Apart from that, there's not much else to credit 'Space Assassin' for.

Summary: Space assassain
Review: Space assassain starts of pretty good, with a awesome variety of equipment,guns grenades, but the bad point is that ,unlike normal fantasy books,you hardly know anything about the futre the enemies , so you are blind when you open the book, and will find it hard to survive.
