Democyclopedia - The Book!
We have a new book about the Atari ST demoscene by ST Survivor (aka STS). I'm sure you will remember the interview a few years back? His book is based on his blog, which alphabetically documents more ST demos than you could shake a stick at. The French version is already out, and when I heard the English version was finally available to pre-order. You know what? I just had to have it, and it has finally arrived!
The book is a beefy A4 hardback, which I'm happy about, to exhibit the beauty of the ST demoscene. The published book is available from Cote Gamers (of Iceblox Plus, Toogle, and others).

A few words from the man himself
"My love for ATARI ST demos started around 1994. Back then I joined a democrew called NLC first as the main editor of the Frenck ToXiC MaG and then as a pixel artist. Around 2015 I started writing a blog called Democyclopedia that is dedicated to ATARI ST demos. I decided to sort all effects alphabetically as well as I added my own favourite demos, a tribute to all pixel artists and some personal articles.As I reached more than 150 articles and thought this was the end of it, a friend suggested I should turn my work into a hardcover book, this is how I came to work with publisher CotÈ Gamers. The 250-page French edition was released last summer and it was more successful than I expected! We are now working on delivering the English edition within the next months but preorders are already open, so go for it! -STS"
