So where’s the Amstrad Book?
We smell a conspiracy here…We were recently sent this rather lavish Commodore 64 book (expect a review in issue 52) to complement the Speccy book we already have, but we’d love to see an actual Amstrad CPC outing in the same style. Then, and only then would the 8-Bit holy trinity be complete*
* We purposely didn’t include the BBC Micro, so please don’t write in and complain.

Fear not Darren and Stu! There’s already one well under way!
A rather lovely chap under the moniker “RetroRevival” has already began work on an Amstrad CPC book which is currently about 40% complete!

Sorry Darran,
I couldn’t find enough good games for the Amstrad

You can play games on an Amstrad?

And perhaps someone could reprint the Speccy book too?

Another machine whose name begins with A is getting the “Golden Years” treatment next… the Amiga.
But don’t rule out the possibility of an Amstrad book in the future…

So, is everyone ignoring the first comment on this? Lol.
