Have there been any Christian-themed gamebooks? The closest might be gamebooks based on Tolkien's TLOTR, while there is an online Harry Potter (solo) RPG, I know of no gamebooks based on the very erudite Chronicles Of Narnia. FF, like HP, has often been banned and challenged over its content, unfairly in my view.

I finally managed to acquire all 5 Narnia gamebooks, although I havent gotten around to playing them yet. Book #5, Return of the White Witch, was one of the toughest ones to find of any series for me yet. If anyone happens to see it in the wild you should definitely grab it.

I'd never even heard of these. I'm a bit surprised I never saw them when they were out - I ought to have done because they were published in 1988 when I would routinely scour the shelves of WH Smiths every time I went into town. Do you remember them when they came out? Also let us know what they are like when you play them.

No I was also totally unaware that they existed when they were released. Although I was pretty much "Fighting Fantasy or bust" in those days (I did have a couple of the Way of the Tiger and Grail Quest books given to me as gifts, but never deigned to play them back then).
