    My favourite of the 1st 18 Endless Quest books was "Mountain of Mirrors". My cousin & I both enjoyed it a lot when we were children. 😃 I liked "Return to Brookmere", too, but mainly for the art.

    Related to the 'Choose Your Own Adventure" genre, I have very fond memories of the Nintendo Adventure Books. That series hit me at just the right time when I was young. I recently was able to track down one or two for my kid and he loved them- it would be a blast to win some of these to see if they resonate the same way!

    Nice! Although I grew up way, way earlier than you did, when it comes to my favorite book series of all time, it has to be either Lord of the Rings (including the Hobbit too of course), and then the Dragonlance Chronicles!!! Thnx 🤓👍

    I remember reading a few of these as a kid, and have even scoured our local used book store and found two for my boys to read, so they would get a feel for the fun that I had experienced years ago, well before smartphones and home computers. They both love them, and feel sorry for my childhood (watching cartoons from the 70’s also gets them sad for “how bad” they think I had it growing up.
    Wouldn’t trade it for the world though. 70’s and 80’s rocked for growing up!

    I distinctly remember getting, and going through, the first 17 "Lone Wolf" books, which really tried to mimic a DND session (complete with a 1-20 randomizer table in the back) for individuals. It was loads of fun.

    I read Dungeon of Dread and Mountain of Mirrors when I was 7. I remember not liking Mountain of Mirrors because it was set in winter and made me feel really cold.

    I remember a lot of those books, more from the covers. I had a few from school books drives. been wanting to read them again for nostalgia.
    I think the Narnia books were my favorite series as a kid then Guardians of the Flame in high school.

    I like The Chronicles of Narnia, and if you hunt for them, there are a few CYOA style gamebooks set in Narnia.

    I read the first 5 books when I was a young teenager do to my love of first addition of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons. I'm trying to recollect the books for my 9 year old son. Any of the books would be well taking care of. I was able to order the first book from Ebay to start his reading adventure.

    I remember as a child collecting these books. And also they had puzzles of Elmore covers. And they had DND candy at the corner store. And of course the toys and cartoon. I was too young to play actual DND so all that other stuff filled the gap.❤
