RPGaDay 2023: Day 10

10. Favourite tie-in FICTION

There was a time when I had the perfect answer to this question—a perfect example of fiction linked to a role-playing game. Barring the example I had in mind, the closest I can get to an answer would be the early BattleTech novels, which narrowly qualify only because of the related MechWarrior role-playing game. (I was in the process of reading them all until the Clan Invasion broke out and I consequently lost interest. Frankly, that stunt ruined the game for me.) In general, though, role-playing games rarely, if ever, inspire good tie-in fiction. I would be pleased to learn otherwise, but I am skeptical.
