Customer Reviews

Exciting!

This book was great! I read it in two nights! I love the part when Chuck's toes became muscular! It was so funny! I can't wait for the second one to come out!

A worthy follow on to the Harry Potter rage with a PS2 twist

As a SONY PS2 fan, and an avid reader of Harry Potter, I must report that this book, "Chuck Farris and the Tower of Darkness" is a refreshing combination of PS2 info and a darn exciting story. I like the way the real world of Chuck and the fantasy world of the PS2 meld into a new reality. This book is a fresh approach to adventure stories. Even my 22 year old brother, another PS2 enthusiast, went crazy about the book. I am recommending this to all my friends.

An Fun Book for Anyone Who Likes videogames or adventure!

I thought this was a very entertaining book. It had a lot of information about how to beat a bunch of Playstation games and at the same time it told an interesting story about a kid in school and how he dealt with some mean kids that bothered him. This was a great follow-up book to the Dragonball Z book by the same writers. I'm anxious to read the next Chuck adventure!!
