The Official Book of King's Quest VI

There are quite a few people at Sierra On-Line who took the time to help me with this book. Chief among them are Wanda Smith, Bill Linn, Anita Greene, and, of course, the sorceress herself, Roberta Williams. Without their help I would have surely been lost in the woods of Daventry and stranded in the Garden of the Beast.

Early tests by the publisher confirmed that black-and-white screen shots did not have the clarity and definition we wanted, and publishing costs being what they are, color screen shots were out of the question. To the rescue came Travis Getz with his clear, concise drawings that convey more hints than the proverbial thousand words.

Finally I gratefully acknowledge the patient work of my quality-control team. Byron Faler, Charles Smith, and, especially, Dan Southerland spent many hours falling down steps, plunging into chasms, and being devoured by dragons in search of my errors. I believe they found most of the cases where I wrote east when I really meant west. Thanks, guys.
