Florin’s ZX Spectrum Haul of Games, with a Foreword by David ‘Magic Knight’ Jones, collects the best of Paul Davies’ musings on the incredible world of Spectrum gaming.
The gaming phenomenon that was the ZX Spectrum, a home computer like no other, was a machine that changed lives when it burst on to the scene in the 1980s. In 10 years, it sold five million. Production ended over a quarter of a century ago, but software titles continue to be released.
Author Paul Davies is an established Spectrum games reviewer, writing for Fusion magazine, Crash, retroyak.com, indieretronews.com and regularly contributing to Retro Gamer magazine.
Florin’s ZX Spectrum Haul of Games is filled with game facts, tips and trivia as a self-confessed Speccyholic take his fellow 8-bit fanatics back to the glory years of gaming, giving us an entertaining take on the world through the lens of the amazing ZX Spectrum.
There is also a canvas, mug, aluminium print and mouse mat to grab as well, using Trevor Storey's amazing new cover.

The story of the Commodore Amiga in Pixels_ was published 3 years ago, and for the last 18 months or so it has been out of stock. To have another print run is expensive - so I am using a Pre-order scheme to raise the funds to print some more of this great book.
The book is 296 pages in length, and just like the Commodore 64 book, and comes in two flavours - paperback and hardback. The paperback has a thick, high-quality cover, with the Tutankhamun embossed and spot varnished; the hardback has a matt finish with spot varnish on the Tutankhamun image.
