Blacksand is a fantastic resource for setting up countless adventures in the formidable City of Thieves! I don't understand why they didn't add also adventure notes to run the conversion of the superclassic gamebook City of Thieves, as there is fundamentally all that you need to know or almost, so having a conversion adventure of the gamebook as a separate publication wouldn't make much sense, as it would repeat a lot of what is already here. A must have for any Fighting Fantasy lover!

It is everything I had hoped it would be and more!

In every great story/world, weither its fantasy or scifi, there is always that one city that is the wretched hive of scum & villany,a true source of endless adventure.Blacksand is just that city! primarily for the Advanced Fighting Fantasy world of Allansia, if you aren't using the AFF RPG this sourcebook it could be modified for any system you like because its filled with lots of npc's, story hooks, types of gambling games, tavern menus, etc. all organized by district. If you're looking for an old school adventure fantasy setting with a dash of Lankhmar, then give it a try.
