Produktbeschreibung

Adventure awaits in this middle-grade fantasy series that blends the interactivity of pick-your-path storytelling with table-top roleplaying games. You become the story's hero as you use your own decision-making—and a roll of the dice—to determine whether you’ll score a legendary win...or an epic fail. Beryl is an orc girl with dreams of becoming a knight. But given her background, her only option is to be sponsored by someone of high society. Luck comes her way when she’s invited to the Baroness Duvayne’s manor, where the Baroness reveals that she’s willing to sponsor her knighthood…for a price. Beryl must go on a quest to collect elemental orbs that are guarded by magical creatures for the Baroness. To make things more complicated, she's not the only aspiring-knight to be given this mission—and the Baroness will only sponsor one of them. When Beryl retrieves her first orb and meets a phoenix dragon named Chrysanthemum, she begins to learn more about the guardian creatures and the realm called Haven they come from. By the end of her quest, Beryl—and you, the reader—will need to make choices about where and with whom your loyalties lie and what kind of hero you want to become. In this adventure series from Nick Eliopulos and featuring art by Ethan M. Aldridge, you become the main character, getting to make your own choices about how the story will unfold. Or do you? Some chapters will present options to choose from while others will ask you to roll a six-sided die and let fate decide your path. It’s an interactive reading experience like no other that will allow young readers to tap into a Dungeon & Dragons style of storytelling while giving them an early introduction to pick-your-poison gamebooks and table-top roleplaying.
