<p>Award-winning UK publisher <a class="external" href="https://www.lostincult.co.uk/">Lost in Cult</a> is teaming up with our sister site <a class="external" href="https://www.timeextension.com/">Time Extension</a> for <a class="external" href="https://www.lostincult.co.uk/the-console-chronicles">The Console Chronicles</a>, a new book covering the history of home console gaming, from the earliest <strong>Pong</strong> machines to the present day.</p>

<p>In fact, there are some more familiar names adding their words to this one – our very own Alana Hagues, Alex Olney, PJ O’Reilly, Liam Doolan, Gavin Lane and Ollie Reynolds. That’s right – they’ll all be contributing to The Console Chronicles, alongside fellow Hookshot Media staffers Stephen Tailby, Aaron Bayne, and Fraser Gilbert.</p>
