    Episode 70 - Gates of Death

    It’s a new author tackling Fighting Fantasy in this episode as we play Gates of Death by experienced kids author and Fast Show alumni Charlie Higson with art by Vlado Krizan. It’s another familiar tale of demonic monsters trying to conquer the world but will it tickle my fancy? Listen along to find out.

    Bonus Episode - Nintendo Adventure Book 1: Double Trouble

    It’s bonus episode time again and we’re taking a look at a book based on the IP of the notoriously litigious Nintendo corporation, Double Trouble featuring the Super Mario Bros. It’s aimed at the under 10s but surely our gallant hero HJDoom will find a way to screw it up. Apologies for the sound quality in this one - I’m wrangling some new tech and still working out the kinks.

    Episode 70 - The Port of Peril

    We’re back in extremely familiar territory as Ian Livingstone takes us on a tour of some of Allansia’s most recognisable settings in The Port of Peril. With art by Vlados Krizan we journey through Chalice to the Moonstone Hills and on to Darkwood Forest and Port Blacksand in search of the means to vanquish an old enemy. Don’t forget that the Lindenbaum Prize is currently taking submissions. Find more information here: https://www.lloydofgamebooks.com/2026/02/voting-is-now-open-for-2026-lindenbaum.html

    Bonus Episode - Conan the Outlaw

    “Conan! What is best in life?”  “Why, it’s listening to a middle aged man play an adventure gamebook based on my many adventures of course.” In this episode HJDoom, a man who isn’t even sure he has thews, never mind mighty ones, takes on Conan the Outlaw by Roger E Moore and art by Ron Randall. Will this meet with his favour? Listen along to find out.

    Episode 69 - Blood of the Zombies

    Staples to mark this milestone. It’s a big departure for the later series as it takes place in modern day and there’s also an entirely new combat system. Otherwise there’s more than a hint of the familiar about proceeding as you explore a zombie infested castle looking for the twenty to thirty different items you’ll need to escape. It might be a fresh approach but is it any good? Listen along to find. Also I have a new gamebook out today. It’s called Mr Blobby and the Propaganda of the Deed and it’s available over at patreon.com/hjoom for all my lovely patrons. It really is extremely silly.

    Bonus Episode - The Ghosts of Craven Manor

    It’s time for another bonus episode this time featuring The Ghosts of Craven Manor by Joseph Daniels. This horror gamebook reads like a mash up between Day of the Tentacle and Quantum Leap. Is that a good thing? Listen along to find out.

    Episode 68 - Night of the Necromancer

    It’s a bittersweet episode of Fantastic Fights as we bid farewell to Jonathan Green whose series of late Fighting Fantasy books have been a real high point for the series as a whole. Can he bow out strong with Night of the Necromancer? Listen along to find out.

    Episode 67 - Stormslayer

    We round off a trilogy of Jonathan Green Fighting Fantasy books with Stormslayer, which follows Bloodbones and Howl of the Werewolf. Is it a case of the third time’s the charm or is this book falling at the final hurdle? With art from experienced illustrator Stephen Player this takes more of a classic fantasy approach than the more horror themed Howl of the Werewolf. Eagle eyed fans will notice a few neat Easter Eggs for those familiar with his previous work, as well as long standing fans of Fighting Fantasy and the Sorcery series. There’s also a small announcement about the first ever patron only bonus episode. Don’t worry, it won’t become a habit.
