The Fighting Fantasy 10th Anniversary Yearbook is a yearbook designed to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Fighting Fantasy series in August 1992 (ISBN 0-14-036290-8). It was compiled and edited by Marc Gascoigne1 and illustrated by a number of artists (see "Cover and Illustrations" below for details). It also contains a calendar for the year 1993. Due to the anniversary nature of this title and the 1993 calendar, it is unlikely that this book will ever be republished.

NOTES

  1. It contains a mini Fighting Fantasy adventure by Graeme Davis and additional material by Keith Martin.

Introduction

The Titan Calendar

Mini-FF

Main article: Rogue Mage

The book contains a reprinting of Rogue Mage by Graeme Davis from Warlock magazine issue 10. The adventure is spread out amongst the whole book, with the "Introduction", instructions and Adventure Sheet on pages 13 through to 21. Then from page 23 through to page 224 there is one reference from the adventure at the bottom of most (but not all) pages.1

NOTES

  1. Oddly (105) is hidden at the top of the page on the same page as (106) and is not within the illustration of a piece of parchment, making it easy to overlook.
