The Chronicles of Craddock Game Book Bundle
I've spent over 20 years chronicling stories about how video games are made, the people who make them, and the culture surrounding them. Two decades seemed the right time to reflect on my work, and to open my archives to you, my fellow readers and gamers. For the first time, you can find nearly all of my books about video games in one place—the Chronicles of Craddock Game Book Bundle!
These books run the gamut of video game history. Whether you spent more time at arcades than you did in class back in the day, or you grew up pointing and clicking your way through adventure games, or your alphabet begins with WASD, you'll find something to love in this bundle spanning over 30 books.
Take to the skies in Rocket Jump: Quake and the Golden Age of First-Person Shooters. Go behind the scenes to learn about the making of perennial classics such as the arcade era of MK in Long Live Mortal Kombat 1, or take a tour through the tumultuous early days of Blizzard Entertainment and Blizzard North in Stay Awhile and Listen books 1 and 2. Hear directly from game developers in the GameDev Stories series, featuring two new volumes with deep dives into games such as Doom and Disney's infamous The Lion King platformer.
I've also treated you to some of my fiction work, plus books such as 150 Words or Less and Heritage: The Alpha Draft that take you behind the scenes of some of my biggest triumphs and pitfalls from a career telling stories—tools that may prove invaluable for readers interested in a more mechanical look at the writing process.
No matter your gaming tastes, these 30+ books will keep you reading—and going back to visit old favorites—for years to come. -David L. Craddock, curator, StoryBundle
