I remember buying the three box set of Warlock on Firetop Mountain, Forest of Doom & The Citadel of Chaos, and playing them to death. I never wrote in them but I had a binder full of my character sheets.
For me, Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone existed on the same level of awesomeness as Stan Lee and George Lucas.
Over time I either sold or gave my collection away but now 30 years later, I think I owe it to Steve and Ian to go out and rediscover their books again.

Looking forward to tracking down the various levels of choose your own adventure (I loved the TSR ones and the time traveller ones) for the boy as he learns to read. Fucker will probably just want to play on the iPad though...

I still have my copy of Appointment with F.E.A.R. that I was able to rescue from the fire at my friend's house. My other ones were not so lucky.
One question for the group: were the American versions abridged at all? They seemed like it some times.

From what I can tell its the original book, using the same story and artwork. However, it appears that certain things are automatically done via the kindle device (I think dice rolling).
These seem kind of interesting and for $2 I'll certainly give one a try just for shits and giggles!

As I have an Amazon US account, I am a bit stuffed unless I want to ship a heavy book all the way to TKWIL.
I hate these stupid region locks for Kindle books.
On a related note, is it possible to gift Kindle books? As this might be a way round it...
