Yes. It's a text-led book, so set your expectations accordingly, but there are plenty of black and white pictures (mostly screenshots) throughout. There's also a colour plate section in the middle with a bunch of photos (a mix of people, floppy disks, and game boxes).

Here's a screenshot of a random spread from the PDF, to give you a sense of how it looks: https://ln5.sync.com/dl/bacfa0360/q88jnzfa-mcykgkg8-iyhaimt9...

That unfortunately is unlikely to change, as my publisher doesn't have much infrastructure for audiobook releases and we only have an audiobook at all because Tantor wanted to sell it in North America.

Shareware Heroes author here. I'm hoping for an official release here downunder soon, but in the meantime there are import copies available through most online Aussie booksellers. And if you're in Melbourne then you can also buy directly from me.

That's me. Hi John! Lovely to run into you here. You still at Apple?

I'd be happy to email you a PDF copy of the new book if you're interested.

That was good fun. I love talking to Dan and Ravi; they always ask good questions. Hope you enjoy the book!

Obligatory mention of my new book, Shareware Heroes: The renegades who redefined gaming at the dawn of the internet https://sharewareheroes.com

It tells the stories behind some of these games, and many others.

One of the mods must have changed the post title without listening to the audio or reading the transcript (which contains around half the story). There's a note near the end of the audio about how Chris won't do interviews except via an intermediary.
