This series of solo adventure books was originally developed in 1982 by Sir Ian Livingstone (see "Sir Ian Livingstone") and Steve Jackson, and debuted with The Warlock of Firetop Mountain. These books combined nonlinear narratives with RPG dice mechanics to send the reader off on an adventure. They have sold 20 million copies of books in this series worldwide and now the series is returning to the U.S.
“To have a new publisher in the USA is a special moment in the history of Fighting Fantasy," said Sir Ian Livingstone. "We have known Steve Jackson (U.S.) for more than 40 years, having distributed Steve Jackson Games in the 1980s when we owned Games Workshop. Steve also wrote three fantastic Fighting Fantasy books which caused a lot of confusion at the time when people didn’t realize there were two Steve Jacksons! We look forward to exciting times ahead in the USA for new and existing Fighting Fantasy fans.”
The co-creators have signed a U.S. publishing agreement with SJG, and books will be on the way to U.S. markets in 2025.
