Tunnels and Trolls is probably worth mentioning here too - in addition to being a fully-fledged rpg system, it had a large selection of solo gamebooks that, unlike most gamebooks, were generally designed for you to move your characters between - some were limited to low-level or starting PCs, but others were explicitly designed for higher level PCs, and at times you could even leave your PC in the book at a location and encounter other PCs (theoretically). Corgi did a set of these solos in a small format that ended up on the shelf next to Lone Wolf and Fighting Fantasy but they got incredibly weird at times since they were much more 'a tabletop scenario adapted for the solo format' than any kind of start to finish narrative. Some of my faves like City of Terrors let you just go off in a bunch of directions and get involved in a series of independent adventures. They also sometimes had references to previous adventures or even straight 'go to paragraph 123 in adventure X' links but there was no concept of ordering, just up to you as a player to decide where to take your hero. The Corgi versions also had some great Josh Kirby art.
