Back in print for the first time in 25 years, The Cave of Time by Edward Packard is more than just a re-issue of a book from 1979. It is a landmark publishing event, and heralds in a new era for Chooseco, the publishers of the series since 2006.
The Choose Your Own Adventure series, for millions of kids around the world, changed the way they think about reading. For the first time reading wasn’t a chore—it was fun! The Cave of Time being a prime example: with its winding pathways, 40 possible endings, and ability to transport YOU, the reader, to distant corners of history. Whether traveling with prehistoric humans as they hunt for Wolly Mammoths, boarding a train with Abraham Lincoln, pleading your case in the court of a medieval king, or fleeing the Titanic as it sinks beneath the icy seas, the possibilities and adventures feel limitless.
For longtime fans, seeing The Cave of Time back on shelves will be a nostalgic trip back to childhood. For kids today, it’s an invitation to explore the fun and joy of reading a book where they get to choose their own path forward, chasing adventure and dodging perils on their way to the next “The End.”
The series, which for many sparked a life long love of reading, still invokes that same excitement and curiosity today—of all Choose titles, The Cave of Time is often the one that fans most fondly remember. After 25 years, the return of The Cave of Time feels not only overdue, but essential. Whether you’re a returning adventurer or a first-time explorer, the mouth of the cave has appeared once more. Step inside and see where your choices take you.
The Cave of Time goes on FOC Monday, 7/7/25!
