About this deal

You are on a quest to find the horn of a unicorn, which will help to purify the water in your village well, which has been tainted by a dead rat.

In 2003, Montgomery and Gilligan took over the Choose Your Own Adventure copyright and launched their own publishing company, Chooseco, to give the books a second life.Lighthearted and brilliantly illustrated, this detailed comic strip lets its reader steer the course of destiny, and have a few laughs in the meantime. The book raises a fond eyebrow at the literary style typical of Austen and her contemporaries, so it’s good to be prepared for some gentle mocking of the stifling corsets, pious dialogue and pushy mothers. A graded reader series uses simplified language, suitable for struggling readers and for those learning English as a second language. Original and interactive, this choose-your-own-adventure comic takes readers on a quest for a magic wand that will stop the Leviathan.

A. (Ray) Montgomery, an independent publisher who put out Packard’s first book, in 1976, after all the big houses had rejected it.

A Smithsonian article criticizes the style as "formulaic" and quotes a scholar stating that "in terms of literary quality, many of the multiple-storyline books are true skunks". These interactive books thrust you into the spotlight, letting you become the hero of your own story. This means that when your child likes the first book in the series, they’ll have plenty more books to read in the rest of the series.Nintendo released its first handheld Game Boy in 1989; the King’s Quest computer games appeared in the nineteen-eighties and nineties; the iconic computer game Myst came out in 1993, with lush graphics and a nuanced story line, the same year as its aesthetic opposite, the popular first-person-shooter game Doom. You are assigned set values to each trait, and then given extra points to distribute as you wish, depending on how you want to weight Alice’s skills.
