We read science fiction and fantasy books to following heroes on their journeys. From Frodo leaving the Shire for the first time to Paul Atreides embarking on his own quest, we get to witness their every triumph and failure. But with the classic, bestselling Choose Your Own Adventure® books, the reader actually gets to be the hero.
We can make our own choices, and those choices come with a wide range of consequences that really make each story come to life. That's why Open Road Integrated Media has teamed up with Chooseco LLC to bring all available print titles of Choose Your Own Adventure to ebook format.
For the first time in nearly 15 years, you'll be able to get classic titles like The Cave of Time and The Abominable Snowman wherever ebooks are sold and lent. Navigating your choices is easier than ever with clickable hyperlinks, so whether you're shopping for a reluctant middle-grade reader or revisiting the series for your own pleasure, this series eagerly welcomes all adventurers.
Here are some of our favorite titles, available for preorder now with publication set for June 23.
Cryptid Chronicles: Mothman
You've heard all the mystery stories about the Appalachian mountains and the old Silver Bridge. You've even heard whispers of ancient creatures and alien invaders. But when those stories turn out to be far more than mere myth, how can you stop the looming disaster?
Will you be lured in by the Mothman's glowing eyes or try joining a secret government agency to stop him? What happens if you choose the wrong path?
Space And Beyond
The vastness of space truly represents endless possibilities, so it's only right that Choose Your Own Adventure® would want to explore the great beyond. Born on a spaceship that's been traveling for years between galaxies, you must decide where you want to call home. Which planet has earned your allegiances, and what are you prepared to do to defend it? From fighting dinosaurs to thwarting curses, there are no end of threats in Space and Beyond, but there's glory to be had, too.
House of Danger
Everybody knows that the Marsden residence is creepy, but as a young detective, it's your job to investigate the missing owner. Who can you trust in a case like this? Your friends? The police? Maybe you should give up before you're wrapped up in a story of mutant chimpanzees and time travel… but then again, what would be the fun in that?
Time Travel Inn
When Grandmother Dolores puts you in charge of the Time Travel Inn in rural Wisconsin, you'll see just how bad things can go for time travel research gone awry. In this crazy, twisting tale, you might just end up as a ruler of faraway lands or trapped far from Earth!
Mystery of the Maya
You've got to find your missing best friend Tom. All it's going to take is a potion, which will send you back in time to the ancient Mayan civilization. Simple enough, right? But can you find your place among this foreign tribe before you wind up as a human sacrifice?
The Cave of Time
For many, The Cave of Time was the first and most impactful book in the Choose Your Own Adventure® series, and it's easy to see why.
There are many winding tunnels in the cave of time, and all of them lead to an equally thrilling (and dangerous) destination. You might find yourself face to face with a woolly mammoth, or worse, be trapped aboard the Titanic in the moments before its fateful date with that iceberg.
Somehow, getting yourself into trouble is just as fun as getting out of it.
