Island of the Lizard King: Fighting Fantasy

Island of the Lizard King: Fighting Fantasy

By Ian Livingstone CBE

Kidnapped by a vicious race of Lizard Men from Fire Island, the young men of Oyster Bay face a grim future of toil, starvation and a lingering death. Their new master is the dangerous and mad Lizard King, who holds sway over his land of mutants with eerie dark magics. You are the only one who can hope to rescue the suffering prisoners, but do you have the courage to risk this dangerous mission?

You are the Hero!

Do you long for a single-player roleplaying experience? Venturesome reader, if you feel bold, take up a sheet of paper and two dice - helpfully, random rolls are printed on every page, if you lack them - and embark on your quest. If you have never experienced a Fighting Fantasy book before, expect a challenging adventure fraught with peril, puzzles and peculiar enemies at every turn.

Improve Your Roleplaying and Game Management

The genre-defining adventures of Fighting Fantasy remain extraordinarily popular to this day. This Scholastic reprint features newly commissioned illustrations and a gold cover and spine - truly lovely on the shelf. Whenever we are lacking in inspiration for a session or campaign, spending time with a Fighting Fantasy book is not only fun and satisfying, but also a helpful window into the mind of some of the most reknowned fantasy authors of all time, acting as your personal GM. Frightful encounters, sinister villains, untold treasures and perfectly-realised puzzles mean every adventure is a thrill - but these worlds are unforgiving of error, and you will need to keep your wits about you...  Good luck, Adventurer!
