Description:

Masters of Doom - David Kushner - 2012 How Two Guys Created an Empire and Transformed Pop Culture By: David Kushner Narrated by: Wil Wheaton Length: 12 hrs and 43 mins Unabridged Audiobook Release date: 07-12-12 Categories: Biographies & Memoirs, Professionals & Academics, Business & Careers Language: English Publisher: Novel Audio Format: mp3 64/48 stereo Publisher's Summary: Masters of Doom is the amazing true story of the Lennon and McCartney of video games: John Carmack and John Romero. Together, they ruled big business. They transformed popular culture. And they provoked a national controversy. More than anything, they lived a unique and rollicking American Dream, escaping the broken homes of their youth to produce the most notoriously successful game franchises in history - Doom and Quake - until the games they made tore them apart. This is a story of friendship and betrayal, commerce and artistry - a powerful and compassionate account of what it's like to be young, driven, and wildly creative. ©2003 David Kushner (P)2012 Audiobooks.com Critic reviews "Compelling . . . Masters of Doom succeeds on several levels. It's just great storytelling, with perfect pacing, drama and characterization. It's also an excellent business book, a cautionary tale with the kind of insider detail that other writers working in the genre should envy." ( Houston Chronicle) “Kushner’s mesmerizing tale of the Two Johns moves at a rapid clip . . . describing the twists and turns of fate that led them to team up in creating the most powerful video games of their generation. . . . An exciting combination of biography and technology.” ( USA Today) “Meticulously researched . . . as a ticktock of the creative process and as insight into a powerful medium too often dismissed as kids’ stuff, Masters of Doom blasts its way to a high score.” ( Entertainment Weekly) 24/7 Seedbox Support
