Fighting Fantasy Gamebook Art

The Warlock of Firetop Mountain - Cover
The adventure begins
First orc encounter
SNAKE! SNAKE! SNAAAAAAKE!
Drunk orcs
The Giver of Sleep to those who never can
Wildman in prison cell
The armoury
Now which lever do i pull?
Rest ye here weary travellers
The Iron Cyclops
I think I'm being watched
The ferry
The boatman and dog
A skeleton crew ;-)
A rotting ghoul
The dwarves in the maze
The minotaur
The Dragon
The Warlock of Firetop Mountain
Page 400! You win the treasure!

Before computer games there were...BOOKS!

And even better there were GAMEBOOKS that let you play a pseudo one player version of Dungeons and Dragons by rolling dice to determine the outcome of various situations.

The first book of this kind in the UK was 'The Warlock of Firetop Mountain' by Ian Livingstone and Steve Jackson (You can actually get this on the iPhone now) which was a classic story and a tough challenge to beat.

The artwork in these books was extraordinary and much better than the official D&D ones. Here are all the picures from Warlock to jog your memory.
