Join me as I explore Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Adventure Gamebook No. 1, Prisoners of Pax Tharkas. This is a Dragonlance Adventure written by Morris Simon in the style of a ‘Chose your own adventure’, story with AD&D game mechanics added. There are 6 possible successful endings if I don’t die, so let’s see if I can find one of them!
