About

The goal of this project is to identify all books on or that cover Quake.

Book must have at least one chapter on or about Quake, Quake II, Quake III Arena, or one of the related mission packs or subsequent Quake games in the series.

This book list is inspired by the doom list of books, but for Quake.

Some books are linked to Google Books and some to Amazon. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Where To Get The Books?

Most of the books are out of print. Many of the books come with a CD.

Secondhand copies of print books can be found on sites like Amazon and eBay.

Digital and scanned copies of most books can be found elsewhere online, such as the Internet Archive, Retromags, and Anna's Archive.

Books are not hosted as part of this list project.
