Hi Rich,
Your ql_wiki has grown in to a very useful resource.
The list of games with colour snapshot illustrations of them, is really
neat ... :-)
Keep up the super work !
You will also find a list of some QL book titles on my web site that may
be of help in adding to your book list at :

PS - Thanks for listing my QL web pages on your "links" too .....
We have been busy this summer trying to save as many commercial QL
titles as possible to ensure the continued future of the QL.
We have managed to get most of the software from microdrive onto a PC
in a format for use with Q-emuLator in the main, although it does help
us to make fresh working copies on microdrives and disks. The idea
behind this, is to ensure those users who have an original copy, but
cannot get it to load anymore, will be able to purchase a working copy
on disk or microdrive, or for use with Q-emuLator from our website
(provided that they can prove ownership of the original program).
As part of this work, we are also updating the QL Wiki to include more
information on the software, hardware, books and traders that have been
around since 1984. We would welcome more input into the traders and
personalities section in particular if anyone knows the history of any
of the software and development houses (however short lived!).
The QL Wiki appears at: http://www.rwapadventures.com/ql_wiki
Lots of work to do in updating the software details, but we hope that
this will address one of the main issues when people talk about the
Sinclair QL - namely they are uncertain what software was produced for
it!!
