This was my first taste of the world of Arkham. It may have not been the best choice being as this was one of those "choose your own adventure" books. It reminded me of those old goosebumps books where you get to decide the outcome of your own story. There were some cool moments here, but ultimately this felt a little too YA for me, with this probably being better suited for younger audiences.
