KEYWORDS: Choose Your Own Adventure, Edward Packard, Third Planet from Altair, Alternate, Endings, Story, Paths DESCRIPTION: From the back cover: THIS DARING SPACE MISSION COULD BE YOUR FINEST - OR IT COULD BE YOUR LAST! You are flying through space - past Mars, Jupiter and Saturn - toward the third planet from the star Altair. You descend to a strange world of deserted cities, glowing caves and man-eating plants. You are here to find the source of the mysterious signals being transmitted to earth. Depending on how you decide to go about your search, you could be captured by alien beings (if you turn to p.65), flung millions of years into the future through a time warp (p.69), or you could witness the creation of the universe (p.86). What happens next in the story? It all depends on the choices you make. How does the story end? Only you can find out! And the best part is that you can keep reading and rereading until you've had not one but many incredibly daring experiences! CONDITION: Creasing to front cover with significant - but not completely fatal - wear to the covers and outside edges. Hinges worn, loose but solid. Previous owner's name in blue biro on IFC. Pencil mark on final page after text ends. Otherwise, contents appear completely unmarked. A good copy with defects. FROM THE BOOKSELLER: Thank you for visiting the Dactyl Books eBay Store!
