It’s bonus time again and this epiosde is a bit different because the book in question, The Cruel Game, was actually specially written for me by my husband as a birthday present last year. It’s a gamebook about playing in the finals of the World Snooker Championship, a grueling best of 35 frames that is played over two days. As well as the on table action (including a shot at a 147 break) the gamebook also features plenty of intrigue off the table as well. It was written by Dr Marcus E Law and he has graciously allowed me to cover it on the podcast and also send a copy out to all my patrons. If you’d like your own copy (along with all the stuff that I’ve written as patron bonus material) all you have to do is go to www.patreon.com/hjdoom and pledge as little as single pound or local equivalent. It’s entirely thanks to the support of my patrons that I’m able to release bonus content like this free to everyone.
