i loved those Fighting Fantasy books!

this thread answered my recently posted question.

i checked on ebay and there seems to be a lot of the FF books listed, but none of the Dell versions (some of them had different covers). does anyone know if the inside illustrations, etc are the same?? is there anywhere to get the Dell versions??

i guess the Dell versions would be harder to find... I think they were only sold in the U.S. and sales of the fighting fantasy novels did not do so well in the U.S. as compared to UK, Canada, Australia.

i prefer the puffin editions; those were the ones I grew up with.


there's some interesting info at http://www.fightingfantasy.com

Hypertext Fiction Online Adventures

An online program that supports this is:

http://www.addventure.com/

There are various addventures already published, and some of the Addventures have related Yahoo clubs where additional pictures and discussion threads are stored to help support the addventures.

What is an "addventure"? Well, it is a like those Endless Quest books, but you are able to add your own extra nodes to the storyline (unless that branch has been closed off).
