Gamebooks. Frighteningly comprehensive guide to gamebooks
Worth looking around for some of the covers to the books. Some of the Fighting Fantasy books had a profound effect on my tiny little mind when I was child - especially The City of Thieves and Deathtrap Dungeon, among others

I never thought I'd find them again!
Oh, wow. This totally takes me back. Especially the covers. Just...wow.

We ought to do a cross-blog choose your own whatever or something.
Where are the thingummies from Judge Dred?
Or the illustrations from Harn?
Ah, well, my list
goes on and on.
