Trying to recall the name of a book from my youth
-
I got it as a reclaim with the cover torn off so i never remembered the title. Recently someone mentioned Choose Your Own Adventure books to me, and I immediately thought of the book I'm trying to remember, because it was a puzzle book in a similar vein, but much more in depth. You had to solve things, you even had combat at points if I remember? (but no dice to play - you just needed the book) If you died you went to the astral plane, and you could solve/play to get back into the story, but I never solved it. There was a great wyrm. (Dragon - maybe more than one) I think there was a wizard. It was darker than choose your own adventure stories, and had a bit of dark humor at points. I remember the spine and the back of the book being greenish in paperback form. I wish I could remember the name of it. It really was exemplar of the form. If anyone has an inkling of the book I'm referring to suggest it here. I'll google it because I'll definitely know it when I see it.
