Synopsis
You are a courier of the Wayfarers' Guild, carrying a sealed parcel that nobody may open. Not even you.
At the edge of a fading star empire lies the Drift: a scattering of odd worlds with even odder customs. There's a city on the back of a giant walking beast, a planet where you must rent your own name, and an ocean of floating gardens. Meanwhile the grey-coated Hollow Syndicate is politely buying up everything it can. And they want your parcel.
With Captain Brann, her battered ship the Lazy Comet, and Pim, a chatty repair drone who knows a little about everything and is right about half of it, you travel from world to world. Every choice counts. Fight, bargain or bluff your way out of trouble, collect codewords and keep an eye on your Delay. The Syndicate is never far behind.
With 350 sections, several endings and a simple game system, The Star Courier is a tribute to the classic gamebooks, and a brand-new adventure for readers aged 10 and up.
Grab a pencil. The fate of the stars is in your hands.
About AG Donné
AG Donné grew up with gamebooks. On summer holidays in Germany he would vanish for hours into adventures where he made the choices himself: which door to open, whom to trust and when it was wiser to run. A pencil, a few dice and a gripping story were all it took to fill a whole holiday with adventure.
Today those books are hard to find on the shelves. He thought that was a shame, because few things spark the imagination like a story in which you are the hero. So he decided to write one himself.
With The Star Courier, AG Donné hopes to bring the gamebook back: for readers who grew up with them, and for a new generation who have never held a hero's fate in their own hands. Grab a pencil, turn to section 1 and decide for yourself how the story ends.
