From the article: What makes these versions special?
The original art! When possible, we’re using the original black-and-white artwork for the interiors – most of which hasn’t been available in over a decade!
Designed for readability! The original Fighting Fantasy books were smaller mass-market paperbacks. They were perfect to sneak into your lunch bag at school, but these new versions are designed to make leaping into a hero’s life easier than ever, with larger print and enhanced formatting that makes reading a joy.
Available in the States! No longer do you need to order overseas or via online auction sites.
Designed as a set! These editions will look great on your shelf, with a unified design, numbered spines, and evocative art. If you’re a longtime fan, these are the versions you wish you had when you were younger! And if you’re new to Fighting Fantasy excitement, these books will be a gateway to worlds beyond imagination.

The first 15 books are US$60, versus five via Kickstarter, and more expensive later on. Bittersweet, I’d like to see these books made more accessible to younger readers. Maybe it’ll come soon.
