Never say never... Mark has just released a brand new "special edition" of the Classic Adventurer...

The contents include interviews with...
Garry Cappuccini, author of ZX Spectrum game Crack City;
the early microcomputing pioneer, Trevor Toms of Ramjam and the ZX80/81 books;
the prolific book author Clive Gifford;
Tony Barber, the man behind cult favourite Valkyrie 17
...and more.
The cover feature is a look at the making of the Lord of the Rings trilogy of adventure games... with comments from the, usually uncredited talent who worked on them.

This is fantastic stuff! I admit this is the first I'm hearing of it, but that's my bad. I wish the fonts were a bit bigger though. My eyes aren't what they used to be.... *sigh*
