I like to have a complete series, so I have purchased all of the author's books, including the new Raiders book (that one is in the mail). So far, I have been through Legion of Shadows several times. There are comments that the book is not the best one; however, being brand new to the gamebook world, I have not noticed these concerns. My character has died several times, and I have managed to slay some bosses with lucky dice! Like a video game, when I die, I get to walk through the challenge again to improve. It has been enjoyable.

I have dabbled in Fabled Lands; those are fun but not as deep as Destiny Quest.

I wish I had known about gamebooks sooner!

The Raiders of Dune Sea is a great start, you will love it; Here you can see a recent video by Ward about the Mage path: https://youtu.be/9Bo4zjlxSiE?si=57Y2pR1ljWCVy_o7

Raiders of Dune Sea and Wrath of Ragnarok share the same main character with a lots of great supporting-characters (some of them from the previous trilogy).

i am sure you will like the mage careers available in Dune Sea; lot of combos and variety in the hero building.

Where to start?

Hi,
The concept of DQ looks very interesting and I'd like to try it out. What are good starting points? Ideally I'd prefer to play a mage and to play with a digital version/e-book. I see that there were some issues with the first book, though?
