Sir Ian Livingstone was in Paris last week for the launch of the French language edition of Dice Men, which is being published by Arkane Asylum.
Sir Ian also signed copies of the book at the exclusive, invitation-only event
Coming in 2024 from Unbound is Magic Realms: The Art of Fighting Fantasy, written by Sir Ian Livingstone and FF historian Jonathan Green.
The book focuses on the work of 26 artists, who have contributed art to the Fighting Fantasy series over the past four decades, across 25 chapters. Each chapter starts with a brief biography of the artist, followed by pages and pages of full colour and/or black & white artwork, along with some previously unseen sketches and other tidbits. There are also insights from the artists themselves into their work.
The book is currently seeking funding here and rewards on offer include signed hardbacks, a clamshell box edition, and a new A2 colour map of Allansia by Leo Hartas.
Sir Ian Livingstone joined industry veterans Marc Gascoigne (author of Titan, Out of the Pit, Battleblade Warrior, and much more), Dave Morris (co-author of The Keep of the Lich Lord), and James Wallis, to reminisce about the legend of fantasy art that was Russ Nicholson.
You can watch the discussion about his life and work, which was hosted by Inside the Rookery, below.
A week ago today, Sir Ian Livingstone attended the UK Games Expo 2023, signing copies of his Fighting Fantasy gamebooks for fans, including the hardback edition of Shadow of the Giants and his history of the first ten years of Games Workshop, Dice Men.
