Post by PeterJ »

Morning,

This was mentioned on the [mention]PaulJ[/mention] show a few episodes back and is now on Amazon.

I don't own it (yet), so can't comment on it's quality.

£12.99 is steep for 156 pages, but I don't suppose there's a lot of mileage in ZX festive games. And what's the crack with the 16bit graphics on the cover? Maybe I'll ask for this as a prezzie, but I'm more tempted by the book on IF by the same author.

Tsk. This is a shameful way of dropping hints for your present Peter.

People like Thomas' text adventure book. I imagine that the cost of this one is down to the use of colour throughout... It does really push the price up when you're printing a book, sadly.
