5.0 out of 5 stars A pleasant adventure. Probably my favorite early Lone Wolf book., June 3, 2006

After getting the legendary Sommerswerd in the previous adventure you set out to the icy world of Kalte to kill Vonotar the Traitor. This adventure is extremely fun and there are many battles - mostly with Ice Barbarians! This adventure also contains one of my favorite items, the Kalte Firesphere. While not a necessary item for the future, it definately comes in handy.

My only problem with the early books is that once you have the Sommerswerd the next four or five books have simple battles. Almost every monster yields an 11+ combat ratio because of the incredible +8 Combat Skill. Even with the ease of the battles, this is probably my favorite book out of the first five.

Finally, Joe Dever has authorized the free distribution and licensing of his Lone Wolf series which are available online. This resource has the unabridged editions which makes it great. I will not give out the URL as part of the reviewers agreement but with a little searching you should be able to find it. However, I am still a fan of reading the paper version.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lone Wolf's quest for revenge!, March 14, 2000

This review is from: The Caverns of Kalte (Lone Wolf, Book 3) (Paperback)

Joe Dever's 'Caverns of Kalte' is the third gamebook in the fantastic, legendary Lone Wolf series. Following the demise of Zagarna, Lone Wolf is set upon a mission to bring Vonotar the Traitor - renegade Magician - to justice. However, Vonotar has found refuge within the icy wastes of Kalte, a hard, merciless wilderness. Where even the ferocities of nature are against him, Lone Wolf must brave the inhabitants of Kalte then steal himself into the magician's fortress. A great sequel to end the legacy of Zagarna, despite it being a part of the Lone Wolf Novice series (books 1-5). In particular, I found the Ice Barbarians a superb feature to this gamebook.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great hit from Dever!, December 23, 1998

The Caverns of Kalte is yet another of the many great Lone Wolf books from Gary Chalk and Joe Dever. This "episode" is set in an icy waistland called Kalte. You are sent to track down another of the Darklords minions and bringing him to justice. I have been collecting these books for seven years and I have never gotten tired of reading a single one of them! I suggest you read one too, you will become addicted like me.
