''Wizards, Warriors and You'' was one of many ChooseYourOwnAdventure-style book series released in the 1980's. Basically the Wizard and the Warrior are the champions of the kingdom of Silvergate. There's a prologue in every book where they're presented with some daunting quest, and the reader decides whether to take it on as the Wizard or the Warrior.
The Wizard armed himself with the Book of Spells, and could use anything within it when the book allowed. The Warrior used the Book of Weapons; he could carry any three weapons from it in addition to the Sword of the Golden Lion, an indestructible blade forged by the same blacksmith who made Excalibur. Every six books the assortment of spells and weapons would change.
The success of spells or battles were determined by such methods as flipping a coin, what time of day the book was being read, or picking a random number. While this lent a somewhat bizarre feeling to the books at times, ''Wizards, Warriors and You'' lasted for 18 books.

!!''Wizards, Warriors and You'' provides examples of:
* ArtisticLicenseAnimalCare: R.L. Stine doesn't know you don't given chicken bones to dogs.
* BadassLongRobe: The Wizard wears one.
* BlingBlingBang: One book begins with a wandering knight challenging the castle's champion (the Warrior). The knight's armor and shield are solid gold, which is immediately noted as a disturbing choice of metal, both due to its weight and softness - a strong sign the knight is not a mortal man. (Indeed, [[SamusIsAGirl she's]] currently neither.)
* DistressedDamsel: Three books were about saving Princess Saralinda from danger, though for what it's worth she does appear a few times in a non-distressed role too. At least, no more distressed than the rest of the kingdom.
* EpicFlail: One of the Warrior's weapons in later books is a flail with three chains and three heads.
* {{Hell}}: Well, it's ''called'' the Cavern of the Phantoms, but it's where bad people go when they die in these books.
* KillerRabbit: The evil MirrorUniverse has killer ''squirrels''.
* KingArthur: The Arthurian mythos figure into a bunch of the books. There's the appropriately-titled Ghost Knights of Camelot, the origin of the Warrior's sword, and Merlin's an advisor to the Wizard.
* MirrorUniverse: Invaders from Darkland.
* OurGiantsAreBigger: They have two hearts and must be killed twice.
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: They're intellegient and can't be destroyed. But they can be incapacitated, or fooled.
