    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  Excellent second book in this series. A fantastic time capsule and trip down to memory lane. So great to have some background info about those fantastic demos i enjoyed on my Amigas during the 80s/90s! A book/series about the 8-bit demoscene would be awesome also 😉 Thank you for this splendid piece of work.
