Story of Commodore: Separating the current manuscript into two books?
Originally Brian Bagnall had split the second issue of his story of Commodore called "On The Edge" into two volumes - the first volume was published in 2010 and finished the story before the company Amiga was took over. The publication of the second volume called "The Amiga Years" has delayed again and again. In 2015 finally it was successfully financed by a Kickstarter campaign.
Now Bagnall has written in his Kickstarter blog, that there is so much to tell that it would be impossible to do this by using 500 pages.
Therefore he has suggested to seperate "The Amiga Years" into two volumes. The first one would start in 1982 with the foundation of Hi Toro/Amiga Inc. and end in 1987. The second one called "The final Years" would describe the time between 1987 until the bankruptcy.
Supporters of the Kickstarter campaign would get ebook editions of "The Amiga Years" and "The Final Years" as soon as possible. The printed edition of the first volume would follow. In order to be able to publish "The Final Years" also as printed edition, another Kickstarter campaign would be required.
