What is working in the games industry like?

A new book entitled Gaming Wonderland answers that question with a honest account of a career which started when he joined as a humble tester in 1999 and lasted until he left the industry under a cloud in 2004.

Follow Francesco Fraulo as he experiences life in an industry that everyone assumes is a wonderland of opportunity but as he quickly finds out, is really a minefield of politics, grudges and nepotism.

Full of funny behind the scenes anecdotes of what life working in gaming is really like. It gives a great insight into the companies, processes and people involved in making video games and is a must read for anyone thinking of joining the games industry.

This is the second edition of the book published in June 2011.
