As a boy, I was reluctant to read and yet still loved the Choose Your Own Adventure series—and I was not alone: over 250 million copies of these books have been sold since its inception in 1979.  Now in my early thirties, I notice a striking lack of light-fiction that is geared towards men.  There are literally millions of adults, like myself, who fondly remember those inane and yet addictive books from their childhood.
