The Endless Quest books were D&D’s version of the Choose Your Own Adventure series, where you make the decisions for the protagonist of the book. The reader reads a passage, then selects one (of usually two) options to proceed.
The first four EQ books are:
- Dungeon of Dread
- Mountain of Mirrors
- Pillars of Pentegarn
- Return to Brookmere
These four were originally printed with the old school Dungeons & Dragons font and TSR Face logo. Books 5 (Revolt of the Dwarves) and 6 (Revenge of the Rainbow Dragons) are hybrids, with the old logo, but more mundane D&D font. Subsequent printings of these books were given the more modern graphics.


One aspect I really like about these – aside from the nostalgia factor – is the interior line art. TSR typically recycled their art to death, repeating pics from product to product.
Not so here. There are some great B&W drawings by Jim Holloway and Timothy Truman here that you won’t see anywhere else.
Note: I updated this older post today with new photos (Jan 13 2021). I do not have Return to Brookmere at this time for detail pics.

Do you notice any differences internally between the different versions such as art of whatever?
No I haven’t seen anything significant inside between the editions. Which makes sense. Changing the cover is easy and cheap.
