I have just released Literally Immersive Gamebooks 5, a sequel to the popular Paranormal Hero. It is already getting good remarks in the forums, and, if the stories feedback is also as positive, a third Paranormal Hero book will be put into production. So why not put your psychic skills to good use in Paranormal Hero 2 : The Nightmare’s Lair – now available on Amazon http://mybook.to/nightmareslair
So my first book written as a guest author for the series Savage Realms Gamebooks has finally been submitted to Amazon, and is available to purchase here https://tinyurl.com/ahkttftx
It is a great honour to be the first guest author for TroyAnthony Schermer’s expanding universe, and the project has seen me through a very dark time in life. IYKYK. It has recieved much praise from Troy and the playtesters, whilst some gamebook fans have been hooked with interest by the arresting title and fabulous art pieces.
I’m delighted to share that I have also been penning a sequel to which we have every intention of producing at some point.
I am currently awaiting the artwork for Malinkar : Lord Of Enmity, which has been going well. The book is billed for release as December 2023, but of course these things can take time if someone falls ill/ real life gets in the way. But so far, so good. Malinkar : Lord Of Enmity is the origin story of the villain from my third book, The Druids Of Pneuma. It highlights why he became so opposed to certain folk, where his powers came from, and sets him up for, possibly, much more.
Hope to start posting here more frequently soon again. Jam out!
The final three days are upon us. I have been running a Kickstarter campaign for my sixth book, Malinkar : Lord Of Enmity, which has been highly successful. If you like to read fantasy adventures, you may just enjoy this yarn as well. It sees the titular character rise to power after discovering his true ancestral line, his corruption and swing towards hatred of the Viridian empire. On top of his, the story is interactive, and a prequel to my third book The Druids Of Pneuma. There are opportunities to get PDFs of both in this campaign so why not check it out today! http://kck.st/3pHWHTS
Back in the eighties game books were at the height of their popularity, selling in their hundreds of thousands. Come the nineties, the video game era took over and game books saw a decline, with even the most popular series being pulled from the shelves. With game book fans of yesteryear now adults, they now wish to introduce their children to the genre, with many of them becoming authors of interactive adventures in their own right. The game book market is now reviving, as this generation looks for ways to bring children back to reading rather than screen time.
My new book, JAMTHOLOGY, is an introduction to game books with four thrilling pre-bedtime sized adventures, which start off easy and grow progressively more involving until you finish a seasoned game book adventurer. It is ideal for readers of all ages who wish to begin a journey into interactive stories and pit their wits, rather than read standard cover to cover books.

For the past two years I have been supporting the Eden Reforestation Project, a brilliant initiative which sets about replacing trees and creating new woodland environments. Today, I declare that every 25% of royalties I recieve through people buying my books will be donated to them. To put that into perspective, tree saplings are only £0.08p each, thus every book sold will now plant at least three trees somewhere in the world. Let’s green the land back together as responsible book lovers 🌲🌳💚🌍
Well, I was going to take a rest from writing, but my delightful niece gifted me a pen and notepad specifically to write my next adventure with. Can’t really ignore a demand like that, so three nights ago I came up with a backstory and we’ll be returning to similar mechanics as LIG2. Exciting times, no idea when it’ll release as I’ve only just begun, and there’s no old manuscript to sponge from like with The Druids Of Pneuma. Watch this space for more.
Rather pleased that sales picked up with the release of The Druids Of Pneuma. May slowly be making a name for myself in the gamebook community. Ive also done a bit of fundraising lately, and the latest charity to receive funds is BulliesOut. Would really recommend them for the fantastic work they do, so check them out sometime. Of course, exposure helps so I also purchased some garb to help spread awareness.
Literally Immersive Gamebooks 4 is being penned. I promised myself time of, but have been bitten by the bug. New genre, no silly 26 year old manuscript, this will be my best yet!
So the special edition sets of The Druids Of Pneuma have started finding their way into their new owners hands. Let’s take a look at a couple of things that make them so special.
1) It’s not branded with the LIG logos. We get to enjoy Malcolm Barter’s art The Bella Mort without the monofett LIG crest across the top. No ISBN or blurb either.
2) It’s a hardback. One of only 35 in existence. Okay, 36 if you include the proof copy. There will never be anymore made, making them rarer than a Magehunter lol.
3) Some text has been removed. If you are a follower of the Literally Immersive Gamebooks page on Facebook, or backed at a Walraven level, you will no what something is when you find it which may be important. Otherwise, your quest may get a little stifled.
4) There is a credit list, and write up about how the book took a quarter of a century to get from my head to its published form.
5) They’re all signed. You’re welcome 😜 Paperbacks will be available on Amazon next week.
