I kick back to share my thoughts about the upcoming YOU Are the Hero: An Interactive History of Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks 40th anniversary edition, arriving August 1st, from Jonathan Green and ACE Game Books. The comprehensive volume details four decades of the beloved interactive books created by Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone in 1982. Not only are the books given an exhaustive treatment so are the videogames, the tabletop TTRPG, miniatures, related gaming releases, and more.
