She’s on the hunt, and nothing can stand in her way!
A new trilogy set in the world of the best-selling Lone Wolf gamebook series
- Lone Wolf is the award-winning, best-selling series of fantasy adventure gamebooks in which YOU are the hero. Created by the late Joe Dever in 1984 and now running to 34 books with over 12 million books sold worldwide, this year Lone Wolf is celebrating its 40th Anniversary.
- Written by the co-creator of the official Lone Wolf podcast and Lone Wolf superfan, Jonathan Stark, The Huntress Trilogy is the first ever new series set in Magamund, the world of Lone Wolf.
- The Huntress tells a cinematic story where your choices matter, with multiple endings and pathways, using mechanics never seen before in gamebooks, such as night and day cycles, time travel, and exciting moment-to-moment decisions.
- The Huntress is perfect for both new fans and Lone Wolf veterans, with no prior knowledge of the series needed to pick it up and play. For those who already know and love Lone Wolf, the trilogy takes place before the events of the main series, offers many callbacks and even answers lore questions that have long been puzzled over by fans.
- Features more than 110 pieces of new art from respected Fighting Fantasy artist Gary Ward, including new maps and action charts, as well as covers designed by Christopher Shy, the founder of Ronin Studios and known for his work on such series as God of War and Call of Duty.
In Vassagonia, there is a saying:
“Two things surely will curse you: the keeping of a secret and the seeking of a secret.”
Criminals spit her name like a curse. Grizzled veterans speak it before a battle to bring them fortune. Courtiers are told of secret places they can leave a list of their rivals and, if they are deemed worthy, she will come for their enemies in the night. Old sages whisper that if you would find that which is lost you have only to seek “The Huntress.”
Shadows Over Fire – A free online introductory adventure
Shadows Over Fire is a free adventure that acts as an introduction to the Huntress series and a chance to try out a gamebook if you never have read one before. In it you take on the role of a member of the Watchful Flame, a secret organization of women who investigate paranormal disturbances.
Shadows is playable entirely online and includes a dice roller, images, and music, allowing interested readers to immerse themselves like never before in the world of Magnamund. With multiple characters to choose from, branching pathways, and over 80 sections, Shadows Over Fire is more than a demo – it is an adventure all its own, offering a different experience each time you read.
