Young Adult Book: Jungle Raid
In addition to the "Find Your Fate" line of G.I.Joe books, Ballantine Books published a series of G.I.Joe Young Adult/Fiction books.
Pictured above is number 5 in the series - Jungle Raid by R.L.Stine. The book is 121 pages in length, it was published in June of 1988, and the ISBN # is 0-345-35098-7. R.L.Stine has gone on to create the popular childrens books "Goosebumps".
The back of the book reads: Combat, he can handle - but being pushed into a pit teeming with angry, poisonous scorpions? Not even undercover expert Chuckles can joke about that.
In fact, the entire mission has been no laughing matter for the G.I.Joe
Team. Their orders were to stop a rebel mercenary force in the steaming
jungles of South America, but now nothing is as it seems: the once-silent
jungle now quakes with Dreadnok Thunder Machines, the rebles turn out to be
crack Crimson Guards, and even Hawk has begun to act a little strange. It
appears to be the work of the vile COBRA Commander, his evel genius ally Dr.
Mindbender, and an incredibly powerful mind control serum - or is it?
Gung-Ho, Sneak Peek, Fast Draw, Roadblock, Crazy Legs, Falcon, and Jinx
won't know the answers until they overcome the trained killer crocs, the
ligtning-quick COBRA Swampfire jungle vehicles, and perhaps their own men.
And they won't know the real truth until they unmask COBRA Commander i nthe
final seconds of the startling conclusion to JUNGLE RAID.
