In 1984, telecommunications giant British Telecom decided to enter the fray and become a computer games publisher, creating Firebird Software.
Firebird published almost 250 different titles, with classic games including Booty, Thrust, Elite, The Sentinel and Virus to name just a few.
This is their story. An in-depth account written by Richard C Hewison with Foreword by Gary Penn, this book gives an insight into why BT entered games publishing, what it was like at Firebird Software, and how some of the titles were created. But, ultimately, it's a story about the people as much as the games.
