Do you want to see the Freeway Warriors series being republished? Well, it might very well be possible! From Joe Dever's Facebook page: Åskfågeln, the Swedish publisher of the Ensamma Vargen (Lone Wolf) books and RPG, have started a Kickstarter to fund their publication of my Freeway Warrior gamebook series. I have updated the timeline and changed Cal Phoenix’s story to better reflect geo-political changes since it was originally written in 1987-88. In the new edition of the series, the story takes place in 2033. The books will be published in Swedish and English with cover art by Lukas Thelin.
The funding goal is a very realistic and achievable 50,000 SEK (GBP4135 / €5455 / US$6120). This is exciting news in its own right, but the really exciting news is that if (when) the Kickstarter achieves its ultimate Stretch Goal of 200,000 SEK (GBP16525 / €21800 / US$24460), it will become a role-playing game as well, to be released in both English and Swedish!So, an updated version of Freeway Warrior? A Roleplaying game based on the series? If this sounds like music to your ears, check out the Kickstarter page here: linkAt the time I'm writing this, the project has already reached more than 30,000 SEK and there's still 28 days left to the campaign.

I'm late on this but the Kickstarter campaign closed with a total of 293,485 SEK pledged (that's more than 31,000 euro, £26,000 and 34,500 $US). The initial objective was only of 50,000 SEK, so a lot of stretched goal have also been achieved, including the publication of a Freeway Warrior RPG in English.
