A tricky route to navigate with some interesting monsters. The new books have disappointing illustrations, though.
For me, the illustrations are an integral part of these books and help to create the mood each one has. If I were buying this again, I would spend more to get an older copy that has the original illustrations. Linework is so much better than computer shading. I've seen the original drawings elsewhere and they are excellent, so this was disappointing.
Otherwise, this is an interesting wander through a dangerous house. What sets it apart is that the monsters are a more imaginative bunch than in some books: for example, miks, ganjees, a calacorm, wheelies, etc, and one character who is a joker. There are often options to blag rather than fight- do you tell the gark that you are a guest, or not? - and there are some areas of the house that are not easy to get to, if you wanted to explore it all and meet all the mobs.

Traditional FF atmosphere, great illustrations in the older books, powerful monsters and a slightly different plot
Make sure to buy a copy with the original illustrations in it- so, one of the older ones. These really add to the feel of it and are bold and done in pen in a woodcut style by Gary Ward and Edward Crosby. If you have Out of the Pit you'll recognise these. A shame they didn't illustrate more in the series.
This is much less of a maze than some of the other fighting fantasy books. The issue is not so much finding a complicated route as collecting the right things along it, and dealing with a series of impressive monsters. Rather than one quest, the one you start morphs into another, and then that changes again. The first part is set in a world of ice and snow, and you end up in places that feature in other ff books- The Forest of Doom and The Warlock of Firetop Mountain, and there are references to other books in the series along the way. The way the storyline goes is a bit different, but the mobs and format are traditional ff ones, with some snow-dwelling creatures thrown in.
