Me: Why don't they turn more books into video games?
Schoolastic: Is there a specific book you'd like to see be made into a video game?
Me: Not just a book, but a series. Wings of fire.
Schoolastic: Really? Why that one?
Me: Well first off Phryia and Pantala are the perfect settings for an open world exploration game! On top of that the different tribes could work for different play styles with different stats!
Schoolastic: That does sound interesting.
Me: There's even a magic system, and the story is perfect for a video game. Each book can be set in it's own "chapter", the books even have perfect boss fights, and don't even get me started on the cast of memorable characters that I would be willing to bet people would pay a full price tag to interact with.
Schoolastic: I guess that would be cool, but there's one issue.
Schoolastic: I mean, how do we keep the fandom from going ballistic if we mess up? I mean have you seen how crazy some people can get?
Me: Okay granted that's a flaw but your gonna get that no matter what you do. Plus there's one more upside I forgot to mention.
Schoolastic: Well don't leave me in suspense.
Me: Think about it, seeing a wonderful fantasy world in a video game is probably enough to get people to read the actual books. And I mean come on, your a big advocate for kids reading, I mean you send out book order magazines to daycare providers!
Schoolastic: You make some good points, we'll think about it.
