Review of [ZX-81 Horizon](http://localhost/book/zx81-horizon/) by [Adrian Watney](http://localhost/indiv/adrian-watney/).

An excellent introduction to advanced programming with a detective game, a graphics game, a file management system, and a machine code programmer/toolkit. Very clearly presented. Many hints and tips. The cassette includes all the program texts – so it saves a lot of time and protects you from typos.
