xpost X1000 to Dan upthread...I thought they were Gygax too, but looking through wikipeida, I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Fighting Fantasy and Sorcery! (both of which I had/have, sorcery being especially good.)

Deathtrap Dungeon was by miles the best. I liked how you came across your rivals over the course of the book and had to choose whether to be allies or enemies.

can i just thank Sara for starting this thread. I've enjoyed looking at all the old books from my adventure based childhood. I'm tempted in buying one of those box sets.

You're welcome! I'm happy I wasn't the only kid obsessed with these. (It seems that there were even other kids in the SAME TOWN - shocker!)

I felt like kind of an idiot yesterday when, about an hour after starting the thread, I looked at one of the bookshelves of kid's books in my house and spotted two CYOA books. I don't think my son has looked at them yet, though.
