Nice collection. I too have a few of the original choose your own adventure books: The Search for Aladdin's Lamp will always be my favourite. As you know I have loads of Fighting Fantasy Books including several rarities and the entire four book collection of The adventures of Goldhawk. I have the entire six book Knightmare collection (based on a series in the UK) although the stories at the start are better than the actual games in them. I also have a few Endless Quest books which were tied in with dungeons and dragons. I'd like to see you read through a few Lone Wolf books since I've never come across them before.
@skeletoncrusader Thank you for checking out my video! It's an honour to have you comment here. I really enjoy your gamebook videos. I'll try to do some Lone Wolf videos soon. Thank you!
@@SprocketWalker Postage cost of books from USA is much higher than it is from UK by at least 4 folds. I always admire USA gamebooks. It is beyond my reach. I have 8 sets of UK red fox editions Lw1-28. But most books are suffering from moderate foxing issues. Otherwise the condition of my book collection is about 8 out of 10

The only gamebook i had as a kid was called City of Thieves by Ian Livingstone and i found it at a thrift shop too. it was lots of fun!
Combat Heroes books were competitive with another person who had their own book and you fought them using the combat system. Very popular.
Fighting Fantasy series…you must read Deathtrap Dungeon. The best one in my opinion.
@@mrpanda2432 Thank you! Much appreciated. 👍
All are USA editions 😆😆
None from UK
I think the Lord of the Rings books might be from the UK. I'll have to look. All these books are influenced by Tolkien, I'm sure.

@@SprocketWalker I am interested in the 6 book series Car Wars by USA Steve Jackson, the one who created the infamous Illminati Cards in 1992.
@@Democraps_are_narrow-minded Looks cool. I'll keep an eye out for it. I've never heard of it before now.
