Fighting Fantasy at the Edinburgh International Book Festival

Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone will be appearing at the Edinburgh International Book Festival this weekend, not once but twice.

On Sunday 12th August 2018, between 2:00pm and 3:00pm, Steve and Ian will be at the Baillie Gifford Corner Theatre to take part in a thrilling interactive audio experience in which YOU become the Hero. As the story unfolds, you will be asked to make all the decisions, bringing the worldwide bestselling series of gamebooks to life.

The event is currently sold out, but it may be worth checking for returns nearer the time.

And then on the same day, Sunday 12th August 2018, between 5:30pm and 6:30pm, Steve and Ian will be joined by Charlie Higson to chat about the concept and evolution of the books. Tickets are still available for this event and can be purchased here.

If you happen to live somewhere north of Salamonis - say, the foothills of the Icefinger Mountains - then you will be pleased to hear that Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone, the co-creators of Fighting Fantasy and co-founders of Games Workshop, will be taking part in the Edinburgh International Book Festival this year.

On Sunday 12th August 2018, between 2:00pm and 3:00pm, join Messrs Jackson and Livingstone at the Baillie Gifford Corner Theatre to take part in a thrilling interactive audio experience in which YOU become the Hero. As the story unfolds, you will be asked to make all the decisions, bringing the worldwide bestselling series of gamebooks to life.

Will you live to see the end of the event?

Tickets go on sale at 8:30am on Tuesday 26th June and cost £5.00 each. The event is recommended for players aged 10-14 (or people aged 10-14 about 30 years ago).
