Hi, I am a big fan of the Lone Wolf Books. I think I discovered a false Link in the HTML/Book Flight from the Dark on Page 20. Here it says: .. turn to Page 273. But I think the story goes on at Page 272. In the German Version of the Book(Yes the one made from Wood! ;)) it is also Page 272. This Project is awesome! Greetings from Germany!

Hi Thorgar

We're glad you are enjoying the project so far. It's always nice to be told our work is "awesome"! :-)

I've had a look at the problem you reported, and it would seem the German translation is actually at fault. Section 190 leads to Sections 273 (to ignore the barge) and 20 (to investigate). Section 20 then leads on to Section 273.

The SVG flowchart for Flight from the Dark is here: <http://www.projectaon.org/svg/01fftd.svgz>

On it, you can see the links between the different sections. Section 272 is on the right-hand side near the top of the chart meaning it's early on in the adventure; and sections 20 and 273 are about 3/4 of the way down the chart. Linking from 20 to 272 would not make sense on the flowchart, so they would make no sense in the actual adventure.

Hope it helps! If you do spot any errors in the books, we're always happy to hear about them, so please do keep us informed of any you might spot.

Regards,
