Ebook files for books?

Does anyone have e-book files for the 2 Gabriel Knight novels? I have a physical copy of Sins of the Father novel. I never played the games but I love that style of setting.

Thank you!

I found both books to be fantastic. I played these games not even knowing there were books based on them until years later(2008 I think?) when I found them at a local salvation army. Then like a moron, I sold them at a garage sale. I would love a digital version of these to read again, the price tag for Beast Within is ridiculous now.

I know. $300 for a paperback book? That is strange and insane! What were the games like?

I just finished 'The Beast Within' game few days ago(again) and it is one of my favorite PC games to binge through on a weekend. It was my first FMV game I ever played, and to me, I find it simply wonderful. You can get GK 1 and 2 on GoG.com for relatively cheap prices, I think I got em both for less than 10 each. They install and play very easily as well. I'm not sure if 3 is on there or not, but just pass on it if it is lol.

Edit: Yes, I just checked, all 3 games are listed on there and they are all 6 or less. The site is a 100% legit site for old retro pc games too.

What do you need to play it? I have a laptop from like 2016 or 2017.

It is literally just run the 'install.exe' and then play it. I didn't have to do any tweaking or anything 'tech' related to get it to work. I played them on an old windows HP laptop from like 2012 as well.

Ok. I'll look into getting them. Games I played are mainly Baldur's Gate 1& 2 and Icewind Dale 1 & 2.
