HeartQuest

HeartQuest

HeartQuest was a series of six interactive novels published by TSR, Inc. for young teenagers during the 80s. The series was a spin-off from their main Endless Quest series set in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. With each novel billed as a "quest for romance and adventure", the series was intended to appeal primarily to a female audience.

As the series was not in print for long, some of the books are very difficult to find, especially the last two.

The series is comprised of:

#Ring of the Ruby Dragon by Jeannie Black
#Talisman of Valdegarde by Madeleine Simon
#Secret Sorceress by Linda Lowery
#Isle of Illusion by Madeleine Simon
#Moon Dragon Summer by Linda Lowery
#Lady of the Winds by Kate Novak

Each book follows a female main character who is frequently embarking on a quest in order to avoid being relegated to a typically feminine role in life, ie, being forced to marry or otherwise being prevented from engaging in heroic pursuits. The heroine is presented with a task (locating a treasure, defeating a dragon) and encounters one or two eligible young men along the way. Depending on the choices the reader makes, the heroine may successfully complete the quest, find romance, or both.
