In this poll, I've split out these books individually because they are either more rare or more expensive or both. Again, I think it's fair to include re-issues from the wizard series. Such a shame knights of doom wasn't re-released. I might do a further poll for collectors  |

If the next poll is only for people who selected multiple non-Wizard titles and asks 'Where do you live?' and 'Where do you keep your spare front door key?', I'm not voting.

I used to have Puffin versions of all of these though I ended up selling Curse of the Mummy, on the grounds that I had the Wizard edition anyway and I needed some cash at the time. Kinda regret it now but I wouldn't say it keeps me awake at night!

Revenge of the vampire the rarest ff book so far - suppose that makes sense. I daresay if curse of the mummy hadn't been reprinted it would have been that one!

Island of the Undead cheaply thanks to a kind donor on an Internet forum.
Night Dragon cheaply from a second-hand bookstore.
Spellbreaker, Legend of Zagor, Deathmoor, and Knights of Doom from various online sellers.
Magehunter in near-mint condition from eBay at a reasonable price.
Revenge of the Vampire and Curse of the Mummy from eBay in appalling condition at high prices.
All obtained around the time Wizard began putting out FF titles, so about 18 years ago or thereabouts.

I am fortunate enough to have copies of all of these. Most were bought off eBay before the resurgence in interest in the last few years, so weren't too expensive. I don't have the puffin spellbreaker, legend of zagor or curse of the mummy, so I'm lucky that wizard republished them. I think knights of doom was the last one I got, which was a bit expensive.
