Curse of the Pharaoh - Paperback

by Oliver Johnson (Author)

Somewhere, half-buried by the drifting sands of the desert Khem, lies the pyramid tomb of the Lost Pharaoh. Great wealth and magical power await its discoverer.

You search the bazaars of the city for a guide, your footsteps dogged by would-be assassins. You battle against the burning sun to reach your destination. There you meet the deadliest obstacle of all - not in the dark passageways filled with fatal traps, nor in the undead mummy guards, but in the curse of the Pharaoh, which no one has ever survived.

This is fantasy adventure with a difference: YOU are the hero A pencil, an eraser and two dice are all you need to embark on your quest. Success and vast riches - or failure and savage death - will depend on the decisions you make in this classic Golden Dragon Gamebook, back in print for the first time in three decades.
