Book description
It's just a fantasy role-playing game. Until the game becomes reality .
. . Friday night is games night. But one special Friday, Paul and his
four friends are transported into the heart of their own game, to the
strange, bleak land of Xhandarre . . . Where reality vanishes, and the
five players assume new and exciting identities - with new and exciting
power. Where hostile tree dwellers, predatory birds, and flesh-eating
werewolves lash out from darkened shadows. And where the evil sorcerer
Avron Kromar holds the key to freedom. Can Paul and his friends survive
their strange, new world? Can they escape its treacherous dangers? And
if they can escape, do they really want to return to reality? (First
published in 1985 as by Christopher Carpenter) Christopher Evans is a
