FPW should write.... - neotank - 05-13-2006 A choose your own RJ adventure. That would be cool. If you want Jack to break Fred's arm turn to page 45. If you want Jack to snap Fred's neck turn to page 120. I personally would turn to page 120 but that's just me.

FPW should write.... - Yang^Guo - 05-14-2006 How about this: "Choose Your Own RJ Adventures" with Young Jack - rather than Repairman Jack - as the protaganist. CYOA books tend to use teenage boys as their main characters, so it'd be more appropriate. Drat. I sound like I'm doing a marketing plan. 'Scuse me all.

Sometimes one broken arm is worth a baker's dozen of broken necks. (Though as Biggles suggests, pulling livers out through nostrils is =always= fine style.)

More stories centered on the NJ Pine Barrens (maybe along the lines of a Blair Witch concept--filmmakers go there to film a documentary). 2. Prequels to the LaNague Chronicles. 3. Sequels to The Fifth Harmonic. 4. Glaeken/Rasalom stories to fill in the gap between ancient history and 1942. If we give him enough requests, it could keep him working for another 60 years, which would not be bad (for us).

I would read and re-read just to make more choices. I used to get those CYOA books all the time as a kid. When they are self-contained stories, they aren't so bad. When they're based on some series of books or other property, there can be problems. There was one for the "Stainless Steel Rat" series by Harry Harrison that had some serious editing problems. I marked up my copy with corrections to make sure I could get to an ending and not be stuck in a loop. The other problem is that the story can be quite boring and cannot be part of the canon as you can't have the main character die. I liked it when death was an option.

One caveat, though--the Pine Barrens documentary has to be filmed by Michael Mann. (Imagine the drama when the director gets the first 1-on-1 interview with Scar-Lip!)
