Enjoyable medieval-based volume in the tried-and-true, Choose Your Own Adventure series. Reading these with my two boys is so fun for us—if there is a conflicting opinion in the matter regarding to which page to turn, we flip a coin and all is well. Usually the reason for the argument is that one of them believes the page-turn chosen by the other is going to result in the inevitable and swiftly delivered death. That death, of course, dealt by the harsh, bold words:
THE END.
In various readings, we managed to die, to simply survive out our book character's life without reaching our goal, and then ... we finally managed to locate the titular forbidden castle, survive, and return home to the present (which was a time when I was a toddler). The ultimate success.

Surprisingly awesome! Plus, it’s a surprise sequel to the first book in the series!
I read these when I was nine/ten years old, voraciously devouring them and re-reading them over and over. My grade five teacher saw how much I loved them, and brought a "how-to" book to give to me, and I remember writing one of my own. It was probably terrible. Still, these books were one of my gateway books to reading non-stop for most of my childhood.
