Much ado about Nothingness

With a new face and name, Bastian returns to Coreander's antiquarian bookstore to seek his sagacious advice. Naturally, he's soon reacquainted with the Neverending Story and drawn back into the phantasmagoric world of Fantasia to answer the Childlike Empress' desperate pleas for help. This time it's under threat from the encroaching 'Emptiness' inflicted upon the monarch's homeland by wicked sorceress, Xayide.

Released in 1990 to coincide with the movie, Linel delivered Neverending Story II, the 2D platformer game for the Amiga, Commodore 64, DOS, and ZX Spectrum. I chuck away my bookmark, diving into the novel of the movie of the novel of the game to decide if you should stick it on your reading list or donate it to Oxfam.
