House of Danger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
House of Danger is a book written by R.A. Montgomery.
Originally written by R.A. Montgomery as the 15th book in the Choose Your Own Adventure Series, it was initially published in 1982 by Bantam Books. It joined The Abominable Snowman, Journey Under the Sea and a number of Montgomery’s Choose Your Own Adventures in the 2005 re-release of the series under its new publisher Chooseco LLC, which is owned in part by Montgomery himself. Upon the republished it was renumbered as the 6th book in the “New” Series
Taking the mantle of a clever young detective, the reader and his friends investigate the site of an old, long gone, Civil War era prison after receiving a strange call. Things go from strange to stranger depending on the reader choices. Chimpanzees with guns, ghosts out of the past, high tech machines and unspeakable evil are but a few of the futures that lay a choice away.
As is the custom for Choose Your Own Adventure, the story is told from the “You” perspective, placing the reader as the protagonist and giving them a new choice virtually every page until they reach an end, at which point they have either succeeded or met some potentially terrible fate.
The story has also been modernized to reflect the changes in technology.
