a few more months before the next chance I get to update the page. For now,
though, I've added a list of frequently asked questions
to make your use of the site a little bit easier. I've also made some minor

It's been a while, hasn't it? The last two months haven't
exactly been the best of my life, and my drive to review gamebooks has
suffered as a result. I seem to be coming back into the swing of things,
though, so with any luck it won't be two months before the next update. For
now, just a couple of minor changes, though: a mention of the eBook
re-release of the Time Machine books and the
