In the Shadow of CPC
In the 1980s, one microcomputer left a lasting impression on an entire generation of gamers: the Amstrad CPC. With its bright colours, shrill music, legendary loading times and cult games, for many of us it was a gateway to video games, creativity and imagination.
A tribute book entirely devoted to Amstrad CPC games. Through a careful selection of iconic titles, this project traces the history, creativity and soul of a machine that had a profound impact on European video games.

This book is simply awesome!… every (not so) serious scener needs this really bad! sometimes you simply fell too lazy to dig out your hardware just to show off someone else what demoscene means so this books come very handy (unless you neet to show some moving pixels with sountrack…) 😉

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!)

I received my books after a rather longer than expected shipping delay but as soon as I unpacked my order of all 4 available books - all worries were gone:
- Pristine Quality
- Beautifully done and more-than-awesome layout
- Packaged professionally, not a single dent in any of the books
I'm in awe at the pure beauty of these books and it's wonderful content. For the asked price, this is beyond anyone's expectations!
Don't think too long, put them in the basket and buy them - you won't regret!
