I was a little disappointed though because even though it is a study of fantasy and gaming culture, it was quite subjective for my tastes and there was a lot comment about the author's life, and to be quite honest, the author seemed to be a little stuck up himself.
While he is correct that in the 70's and 80's, when roleplaying began to take off, it was a hobby played mostly by marginalised people, and that in the thirty years since it has moved into the mainstream, there are a number of suppositions that I simply do not agree with. It is clear that the author is not a Christian, and seems to consider Christians to be caught up in a fantasy world, though throughout the book, the author seems to be struggling with his own fantasy world, and seems to attempt to escape it and at other times seems to embrace it. However, a lot of the aspects of roleplaying that he describes very much apply to the church. While roleplaying may now be mainstream, there still seems to be a hesitance among the participants that they actually engage in the activity. I know that I have that hesitance at times. However, it isn't exactly the only society that lives in a marginalised world. People who adhear to a particular religious philosophy and drug users also fall into that category. The difference is that people tend not to be incarcerated or even killed for roleplaying. They never have and it is highly unlikely that they ever will.
There is also his supposition that fantasy roleplayers have a yearning for an idealistic past, though being a student of history I can say that there is no idealistic past. While some believe there was a time when there were monsters (and to an ancient Roman, an elephant was pretty scary, as was a lion), and that there were practitioners of magic, these things were never all that rosey. He also seems to describe science-fiction as being depressing, and while some sci-fi games like Shadowrun and Cyberpunk are very dark, we also have Star Trek and Star Wars. Whereas fantasy roleplayers have a yearning for the past, there is also a desire to see an idealised future where all of our problems have been solved.
As for me, I roleplay because it's fun (I mostly DM because I simply have never found the same enjoyment in playing). When I last played (as of this writing) we spent time playing, and we spent time talking about nothing in particular. My group (for want of a better definition, at best we have 5 people, but in a lot of cases there are only three of us) doesn't take the game all that seriously and we simply get together as a social event. As for his descriptions of the events and how everybody is welcomed and feels a part of something, I must say that that is idealistic at best. I have LARPed, and the LARP that I played in was full of snobs.
My biggest issue with roleplaying is that there are people, normally called power gamers, who use the game to make themselves feel good about themselves, and when something bad happens, then they throw a tantrum. As for LARPs, that was an exercise in losers throwing their weight around a bunch of losers. Nine years after I stopped LARPing I see some of the bigwigs in the LARP working as delivery boys. While there is nothing wrong with being a delivery boy, these guys have university degrees, and it is not as if it is a job one does between jobs, this job seems to be their career. Such is irony.(less)

I didn't realize when I picked up this book that it would be, like Julie and Julia or The Year of Living Biblically, one of those "I gave myself a quest and wrote about it so that I could get a book published" books. In Gilsdorf's case, his quest is a mid-life-crisis fueled desire to find out if it's possible to go back to his geeky roots without being a geek. Or something like that. Unfortunately, although his story of growing up with a disabled mother could be very powerful if followed to its...more

4.1.10:
Now that I've finished the book, I have to say that I'm disappointed. Gilsdorf doesn't end the book the way I would hope a book about fantasy and questing would end, with a winner and a resolution. But that's the entire point. Real life is murky; it has shades of grey that can't be resolved. There isn't a winner and there isn't a looser - maybe Spike said it best, "Life isn't bliss. Life is just this; it's living." For me, the ending I hoped for was a hope that I can find that ending for...more

Reading this one on paper!

----

Well, this was downright weird. I thought I would be reading a journalistic exploration of fantasy and gaming subcultures, but Gilsdorf ventures way beyond this into what reads like not only armchair psychoanalysis, but armchair self-psychoanalysis. Throughout the book, he vacillates both on the idea of participation in these subcultures as escapism, and on the harmfulness of that escapism.

In his senior year of high school he discovered girls -- or rather one discovered him -- and so he set down his multi-colored dice and turned his back on Nerd-dom and Geekery.

But, a few years into his forties, he has an epiphany: hey, I should look back into D&D and other geeky stuff, then make a book about it! So he did and this is what came out of it all. The reader gets to follow along as the author explores D&D (an old tabletop, paper-and-pencil game, wherein a group of players travel through dungeons and defeat monsters; the precursor to MMOs), LARPs (Live Action Role Playing: basically D&D, but you dress up and run around the woods; D&D "for real"), the SCA (the Society for Creative Anachronism: Renaissance Fair-type stuff, though no one gets paid), Dragon*Con (an SF and Fantasy convention, wherein people dress up and meet "stars"), MMOs (Massively Multiplayer Online games), and even New Zealand (aka, Middle Earth -- sort of).

I have always been curious about geeks and what you might call "geek culture." And yes, I have been called a "geek" and a "nerd" -- though, these days, who hasn't? So, as they say, this book is relevant to my interests. Yet, somehow, I have never participated or even been particularly interested in any of the things this book discusses -- I haven't even read any of the Middle Earth/Tolkien books. Reading this book draws me towards some of these activities and away from others: I promise, here and now, to at least read The Hobbit; MMOs seem as repulsive as ever; D&D is a "maybe someday"; and I still haven't made up my mind on all those other, costume-y affairs.

This book does a decent job of portraying each group and activity while staying fairly objective about it. Of course, it's not exactly the doom and gloom of some zealot parent groups and the like, but the author seems forever sceptical. Throughout, there is a discussion of escapism: does the goofy stuff these people do qualify as escapism? Is escapism a healthy release of our inner urges and struggles, or does it make things worse? In the end, I think the author and I agree that it's all pretty harmless stuff -- and maybe even beneficial in some cases. Sure, they may look like goofballs, but they're not hurting anyone -- and no one's mind is seriously warped from, say, spending a week out in the woods, dressed as a knight or maiden. And, hey, maybe they'll encounter some kindred spirits -- it's no secret that many geeks have married someone they discovered at some geeky activity or other.

And yes, as has already been said by others, the author laces the descriptions of the people and activities he discovers on his travels with his own, somewhat whiny story. Can he grow up and become a family man? Does he even want to? Honestly, I don't care. Honestly, why should I? He is just another in the pack, another writer, and can't seem to accept that. Nor can he accept that he is much less interesting than his chosen topics, and, often times, less interesting than the people he encounters. Why must everything somehow relate back to him?

Ignoring this, and the author's other deficiencies as a writer, is fairly easy. Things don't always flow easily, some lines or paragraphs could be better stated, but he is competent. He gets his point across -- at least enough to teach me a few things and get me interested in his chosen topics.

In summation: Three stars.

I very rarely get over halfway through a book and not want to finish. Normally I know after the first few chapters if I want to keep going. This book suckered me in with the pathos of growing up with a broken mother, and I liked the concept of revisiting nerdy persuits after giving them up. What I did not like was the consistent navel-gazing and morose pondering that the author worried that he wad turning into one of "those people" every time he enjoyed one of the subjects of his chapter.

There’s a moment when the author hesitates before he opens up a box he finds in his parents’ house. A box containing all of his D&D books, maps and dice. A moment, twenty years after they had been stowed away, in which he reflects whether he wants to reopen the obsession of living in fantasy worlds.

We’re geeks, freaks, weirdos, possibly satanic nuts with a predilection for exploring sewers with plastic swords or spending far too much money and time on polyhedral dice or video game subscriptions. “Playing D&D” (Dungeons & Dragons for the uninitiated) is often the punchline of jokes concerning whether or not a person is a complete spaz or not. The stereotypical gamer/fantasy fan is a pimply adolescent male with a 0 in Charisma and a 20 in Intelligence. The stereotypical female fantasy fan is similar but also houses a huge collection of unicorns of all shapes and sizes. However, I have noticed a bit of a shift in the social strata that has allowed fantasy geekery to emerge to higher place on the pop-culture food chain.

Sure, geeks are still the butt of jokes from the cool Abercrombie & Fitch kids but they’ve also gotten some respect as well. MMORPGs (such as World of Warcraft or Lord of the Rings Online) attract millions of players (and dollars) from around the globe. Thousands participate in Live Action Roleplaying (LARP) events and clubs. Traditional table-top gaming is faltering, but still a multi-million dollar industry.

Part of me wants to believe that it is just the aging of my generation that has brought this to pass…all those kids who grew up during the fantasy “boom” of the early 1980s are now the adults running the show. On the other hand, Ethan Gilsdorf attributes much of this to the powerhouse Lord of the Rings movie trilogy brought to us by that puckish kiwi Peter Jackson. At any rate, it was this event that reawakened his inner nerd and got him asking some central questions about the phenomenon. What draws us to fantasy? What drives so many of us to seek out worlds that never existed? Is our desire for fantasy intrinsic and necessary or is it something that should inspire fear and constant vigilance? Regardless of what the “geek big bang” could be, Gilsdorf takes us on his journey into the heart of fantasy geekdom in his memoir/journalistic quest entitled Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks.

The author had a brutal childhood, so he has a very hard time getting away from the role-playing game as 'escapism' trope. I liked his anecdotes, but there was a bit too much second rate sociology mixed in. At the end of the book he did emphasize rpg as a constructive process, which really gets lost, I think, in describing the phenomena.

I thought he got away from the 'role-playing' in rpg sometimes, especially by going on and on about Tolkien. He could have adhered better to that theme.
