(too bad his Car Wars Adventure Gamebooks weren't so consistent in that regard) The idea of having a mob of skeletons crew your own pirate ship was intriguing (I've never seen "Jason and the Argonauts"), and the encounters with the Toolfish and the Sea Dragon are quite memorable.

He's one of my favourites. All a matter of opinion of course. Underwater-y creatures have always been the scariest of fantatic beats to me, maybe because I can't swim and am terrified of water!granitoonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07106346192751165711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3640929554503965005.post-53855643716740103382015-09-15T19:09:05.339+01:002015-09-15T19:09:05.339+01:00I'll have to print them out first.....wish I c...I'll have to print them out first.....wish I could buy more time as you do provisions in the FF adventures.<br />edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13633073283427830809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3640929554503965005.post-87948484405778472732015-09-15T18:33:27.529+01:002015-09-15T18:33:27.529+01:00Thanks ed.
