Boss Fight Books founding editor and author Gabe Durham examines the themes of The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. Lindsay D. Grace suggests ways games can make an impact socially in Doing Things with Games.

All that, plus David L. Craddock’s critically acclaimed Monsters in the Dark: The Making of X-COM: UFO Defense charts the early years of legendary game designer Julian Gollop, Jennifer Brandes Hepler provides advice for female developers looking to break the glass ceiling in Women in Game Development, Kurt Kalata looks at more translations of classic video games, and many others.

StoryBundle is a pay-what-you-want platform for independent authors to share their works with readers (and gamers) like you. Paying at least $5 will get you four books from the Summer Invasion Game Bundle, while paying $15 or more unlocks all 11 books.

StoryBundle is pleased to partner with Women in Games, a nonprofit founded for the purpose of fostering equality and diversity in the gaming industry.
