This was such a fun adventure novel. I really loved the play your formate in this book. I am not the biggest gamer in the world. But I did enjoy both versions of the story. I think i prefer the Crypt Quest verison of this story. It was not as easy "to win" your story but it really fast read! I rec. this book for younger kids who don't read often but enjoy video games and this might but a fun read for them. I will def check out more books like this in this series in the future. ( )

I didn't grow up on choose your own adventures, nor am I the target age for this book, but when I got the ARC at NYCC I was intrigued all the same. Both stories are well crafted, simultaneously humorous and action-packed. Personally, I preferred Crypt Quest, but it's clear the author preferred Space Battles.

My only two cons are that often, especially in Space Battles, the controls aren't that intuitive, and when I thought I was making one choice, it was clear by the answer I got that I was not. The other is that sometimes the "correct" answer is a random one, seemingly making no sense in the context of the clues given. Perhaps this is a staple of choose your own adventure stories, but again I wouldn't know.

Overall, it was a fun, quick read and I'd buy the next book in the series whenever it comes out. ( )

I love the return of the Choose Your Own Adventure-style interactive books, but the construction of this one was a little confusing. Several of the pages contained what appeared to be results of more than one choice, so figuring out which one was the result of the choice you had made wasn't always clear-cut. ( )
