1994-1997: Der Atari ST und die Kreativen, Bd. 3. Im virtuellen Reich der High-Tech-Pixelwelten. Falcon, Jaguar, 64-Bit - es klang alles so gut. Ehemalige Atari ST-Spezialisten wollen ihr Können zeigen. War es zu wenig, zu spät? Die Demoszene an der Schwelle zum Beruf, gefangen im Strudel einer untergehenden Computerspielindustrie.

Mit einem Vorwort von Marc Rosocha, dem Gründer von Eclipse Software. Rosocha war einer der ersten 16-Bit-Unternehmer in Deutschland, der von seinen Erfahrungen in der Demoszene profitierte. Er begann seine Karriere bei Thalion. Doch erst mit Eclipse machte er sich selbstständig und entwickelte eines der wichtigsten Spiele für den Atari Jaguar: Iron Soldier.

Im Silicon Valley herrscht eine neue Aufbruchstimmung. Mit der Jaguar-Konsole fühlt sich Atari wieder unbesiegbar. Das lockt nicht nur Maschinensprachexperten aus dem digitalen Untergrund an, auch viele Softwarehäuser glauben an einen Neuanfang in Sunnyvale. Während die Coding-Zauberer aus der Szene am Falcon festhalten, mobilisieren kleine ST/E-Programmierteams ihr 68000-Know-how für den immer schneller werdenden Spielemarkt. Eclipse orientiert sich in Richtung USA und gestaltet den 64-Bit-Markt aggressiver, während sich das ehemalige Thalion-Team bei Blue Byte zu einem weiteren Rollenspielepos versammelt. Die Erfahrung der Demoszene hält die kreative Verschwörung zusammen und die Lust auf "das Unmögliche" geht weiter. Erfahrt mehr über die unsteten Zeiten der späten 90er und ihre verrückten Entwicklerteams. Atari Falcon und Amiga 1200 kämpfen nun um die Aufmerksamkeit einer sterbenden Homecomputergemeinde. Alle gegen DOS. Es ist ein Zusammenprall aller Computerszenen und das Erwachen einer neuen, wachsenden kreativen Gemeinschaft. Von nun an übernehmen Clubs die Organisation von Computermessen und Homebrew-Entwickler arbeiten an fehlender Software und Hardware: sogar an einer neuen Generation von TOS-kompatiblen Computern.

RETURN OF THE BORDERS geht zurück in eine Zeit, in der "64-Bit" wie ein unwiderstehliches Versprechen auf eine digitale Zukunft klingt. Heimcomputer blieben jedoch auf dem Abstellgleis. Sind die Kreativen bereit, wieder zu investieren? Auch in die Zukunft von Atari? Der 3. Band taucht ein in die dunkelste Ära der Atari Corporation. Die Szene ist kaputt und sucht ihre Nische in einem bereits toten Spielemarkt.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.
