Length: 121 pages Number of Endings: 25 LC Cataloging in Publication Summary: The reader, trapped after closing in the newest and largest department store in Atlanta, is given choices to make to remove himself from the night of terror. Demian's Thoughts: Click here for more reviews by Demian This book is something of an improvement over the previous volume even though it shares most of the same flaws. There are choices that affect outcomes rather than actions, but not quite so many, and while the story is full of random and senseless events and has nothing that could be described as a meaningful plot, at least the paths through it are longer and more satisfying than those in the last book. Some of the stories told in this volume are purely silly and ridiculous, but others have at least a little bit of atmosphere; in fact, when I was considerably younger, I recall being genuinely frightened by parts of the book. It's still far from being a great success, but it's not as hopelessly weak as its predecessor. From gamebooks org (I also remember reading this book as a kid, it is genuinly scary at parts and definatly the best in the series)

for 12-14

I read this book over and over as a kid of about 10. I loved it then. Of course, i was 10, and a reader much older then 14 would laugh at this book, i have nothing but fond memories of it.
