Sky Lord (ISBN 0-14-032601-4) is a single player roleplaying gamebook written by Martin Allen, illustrated by Tim Sell and originally published in 1988. It forms part of Jackson and Ian Livingstone's Fighting Fantasy series, numbered 33 in the original Puffin printing and not yet included in the Wizard reissuing.
The player controls Jang Mistral, a four-armed soldier from the planet Ensulina. His mission is to travel to Aarok, an artificial planet that has become a den of rogues and criminals, and capture a scientist named L'Bastin. The mission is doubly urgent because L'Bastin has reportedly created a species of dog-headed humanoid called the Prefectas who are the ultimate warriors in the universe.
The book is generally considered to be the worst of the Fighting Fantasy series because of very strange and incoherent situations and writing.
