    5 Star Review  Love both of these books. A lot of work has went into the coalition of their contents and i’m loving the detail and the beautiful imagery. The post cards and poster are also a nice touch. Well done on a wonderful 2nd book that every amiga fan should own. (As well as the first of course!)

  • 5 Star Review  I really enjoyed volume 1 and volume 2 is great too. I backed through Indiegogo and got the extra postcards, which look really nice. And the book itself is really well made, with the handy QR codes and so many great interviews with the sceners. It gives a really good flavour of how the Amiga demoscene was developing and making use of the new AGA hardware. Top work.

  • 5 Star Review  Truely a good book to go through, reliving all the memories of the beautiful arts.
    The packaging was awesome for the Kickstarters (special box with extra's).

    Only wish is that the had book started earlier in time. 10 years or so. There was already excellent art being produced, also with art-packs (ascii/ansi). That could have avoided also to a wider spread in art groups and therefor less feeling of 'more of the same'.

    5 Star Review  The editing and layout of the book are of very high quality. The large number of images and logos is impressive, highly diverse, and very original. It evokes nostalgia for past eras and serves as an excellent source of inspiration, especially when compared to the bland and soulless type design often seen nowadays.

    5 Star Review  Une incroyable série de livres dont j'ai bien cru qu'elle ne verrait jamais le jour mais son auteur/éditeur s'est accroché et voilà le résultat, et quel résultat ! Deux magnifiques pavés, complets, détaillés et intéressants à lire (dans la langue de Shakespeare uniquement, pour le moment ?). Merci aux Éditions 64k et Amiga rulez ! ^^
