Rare early computer-literature crossover title: Timelost (Timex/Sinclair 1000 Version) by Joseph C. Giarratano, Arlan Keith Andrews Sr., and Kris Austen Andrews, published by Que Corporation, Indianapolis (1983).
This unique book blends science fiction storytelling with computer programming education for the Timex/Sinclair 1000. The story follows a teenage computer whiz and his sister who are swept through time to battle “Warbirds of the Past” and a sinister Time Wizard—while readers learn to type and modify actual code to play the related adventure game.
Features the distinctive neon-style cover art and retro Que branding from the early home computing era. These books were early precursors to interactive fiction and game design manuals, now highly collectible among vintage computing, Timex/Sinclair, and retro tech history enthusiasts.
