Does anyone have a copy of this they'd be prepared to part with? I had a copy back in the day, and although it is part of the WoS archive I would like to have the real thing again.

If so, please PM me with what you would like for it, including postage to the UK. Thanks. :)

    I don't want to part with my copy but it comes up pretty regularly on eBay.

    I have been checking eBay for a good while (plus they e-mail me if this title appears) but it hasn't come up, unfortunately.

    Exploring Adventures on the Spectrum 48K (by Peter Gerrard) has been listed though!

    I would pay ?12 including UK postage if anyone does want to sell theirs.

    Yes, I do know the difference between the two brothers. I certainly remember seeing a signed edition up there fairly recently but I imagine that may have been before you set up your search if you didn't see it.

    Wow, a signed edition... that would have been nice.

    I'll keep on waiting and hoping it will appear again. :)

    I have a personally signed copy that was sent to me from Mike G, as he included a few adventure solutions of mine in the book. From a quick flick through, one was 'Guild of Thieves' and the other was for 'The Pawn'.

    Funny thing is, I'd completely forgotten I'd got this book or contributed to it until I saw this forum thread!

    I also have 'The Spectrum Adventurer' that was written by Mike Gerrard and published by Duckworth in 1985. I've just noticed there isn't a cover scan on WOS for it, so I'll have to fire up my scanner and contribute.

    Very nice! But I know you won't sell that one. :)

    lol... you're right! I offer a Twix, a Wispa and a Double Decker for the signed book! :D

    That book was printed by Antony Rowe in Chippenham. I used to visit them quite a bit when I worked in education publishing a few years back.

    That is all :)
