Lara Croft is the protagonist of the Tomb Raider franchise, one of the most recognizable characters in video game history. An aristocratic British archaeologist with exceptional athletic abilities and combat skills, Croft travels the world investigating ancient ruins, recovering powerful artifacts, and confronting the dangers that guard them.
In the tie-in novels by James Alan Gardner, Croft’s adventures take her from the deserts of the Middle East to ancient temples and forgotten tombs. The novels expand on her character beyond what the games show, giving readers a deeper look at the intelligence, resourcefulness, and determination that make her one of fiction’s most enduring adventurers.
