Any that I can buy? One of my favorite novel series is based off a gaming session: the Malazan Book of the Fallen.
https://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Damnation-Kane-I/dp/138779...
> Damnation Kane: Irish pirate captain, born in 1650 to an English Puritan and an Irish druidess. Through means mystical and mysterious, somehow Damnation finds himself, with his ship The Grace of Ireland and his crew of scalawags, in strange seas. His ship damaged by battle and by storm's fury, Captain Kane and his men seek a safe harbor; in the process they make dangerous new enemies, and tensions among the crew worsen. Because they do not know where they are, nor how they came to be there. Is it Hell? An undiscovered country? The land of the Fae? No: it is Florida. In the year 2011.
The novel isn't D&D swords and sorcery, but my second favorite scene is fantasy-like, where Kane's druidess mother casts an elaborate spell in a desperate attempt to contact him across the sea and centuries. (My favorite scene is where the pirates invade a Home Depot, and the guy with no thumbs swinging chains attacks a table saw...)
D&D definitely played a role in developing his narrative talents. Amazing game.
Dunno why it's not on Amazon, but it's available as an eBook on SmashWords in several different formats including mobi (Kindle).

Oho?
The full title is "The Adventures of Damnation Kane Book I: Out of Place and Out of Time".
Here's a teaser (the story is mostly told from the perspective of Kane as a ship's log):
> But that thing that I saw when we came in sight of the shore! I thought it was a part of the land: the White Cliffs of Dover on the shore of the New World. Until it moved. Until it blew smoke from its back, like the spume of a whale, and sounded a horn that could have drowned out Gabriel’s trumpet, and then it sailed across the bay before us. Against the wind. Against the tide.
> It was a hundred feet high, two hundred. Pure white, shining like the clouds in a summer sky. It would have stretched from one end of the village where my mother raised me to the other, and beyond. It was smoking – there was fire on it – fire, the curse of ships, the terror of all sailors. And it sailed through the waves, without sail, without oars.
> I looked through my glass and I saw the faces of the men and women aboard. I saw children. They smiled.
> I looked at its bow and I saw written there in letters as tall as a man, “GRAND PRINCESS.”
> It was a ship. A ship the size of a mountain.
> We are in Hell.

At the moment of watching the show I didn't realized but, after learning the fact, it was obvious that I had been watching a role campaign.

I’d loosely describe it as Final Space set in Middle Earth. Though I found the humour far less forced than in Final Space.
