Slingers Featured in SFX

Sleepydog’s forthcoming television series, Slingers has been featured in the latest issue of SFX magazine.

Talking about how we developed the Slingers concept, writer Mike Atherton said:

“Our approach was always that Slingers would be a ’60s-style heist show that just happened to be set in space. I’m not trying to dismiss the SF element because I live and breathe this stuff myself, but our initial take was to try and focus on something different from just the tech and the ships.”

The coverage also includes some fantastic concept art by the Brownlee Brothers, so grab a copy of this month’s SFX magazine to read the full article.

Speaking about their range of eBooks for the iPhone and iPod touch, the 2 Steves said:

We’ve been showing kids all our titles, including Vernon Bright, on the iPhone/iPod touch during our school visits, and they love the idea of reading on these devices – for the disaffected readers they’re not reading a book, they’re using an app (there’s a world of difference!) and everyone enjoys the rolling text on Star Bores and the quizzes.
