Thirty-Nine Steps take ebooks up another level
Richard Hannay, a man on the run, is outpacing all others. Why? Faber and Faber have taken John Buchan's thriller, The Thirty-Nine Steps up another level with the help of The Story Mechanics creating a fully playable and immersive product. This is new ground in digital reading with the app containing stop-frame animation and original silent film music. Will books ever be the same again?
