THE SPRING GETAWAY GAME BUNDLE

The Spring Getaway Game Bundle - Curated by David L. Craddock

Grass is turning from brown to green and flowers are blooming, making it the perfect time to play outside. But why risk allergens when the Spring Getaway Game Bundle is your ticket to fantastical getaway spots? Pack a bag and bring extra snacks—these 10 books about video games offer amazing sightseeing opportunities and new people (and creatures) to meet.

Boss Fight Books author Matt Margini's Red Dead Redemption spirits you to the Old West to find out how Rockstar Games built, marketed, and sold its gunslinger game to gamers. Raheem "Mega Ran" Jarbo's Dream Master takes you on a real-life journey through hip hop, the education field, video games, and courage. Veteran games journalist Kyle Orland returns with Save Point, his latest collection of articles and essays that examine gaming's growing pains as the industry matured.

All that, plus the third volume of S. M. G. Szczepaniak's Untold History of Japanese Game Developers: Volume 3, Hardcore Gaming 101's Wrestling with Pixels, stories of swords and sorcery set in the Ultima series of RPGs, and more! – David L. Craddock
