Memories of Firebird

[rainbirdrich]

Apologies if you have seen this news elsewhere.

Many years ago I worked in games publishing, and the first company I worked for was Telecomsoft, better known as Firebird Software, Rainbird Software and the Firebird/Silverbird budget range.

My book 'Memories of Firebird' is now available for pre-ordering via the publisher's website. It's a fully illustrated paperback book which gives a comprehensive historical account of Firebird Software, from 1984 through to 1990, covering its ownership under BT and then Microprose. It's the result of 20+ years of research, and has been a passion project of mine for the last few years. The book wouldn't have been possible without the kind and generous help I've received from so many former colleagues, developers, and fans of the label.

The book isn't due to be published until Spring next year (2024), but if you order now, it is currently available at a discounted rate for all those early birds (excuse the pun!).
