In February 2011, GSC asked the fan community about any interest in English books based on the games. Responses were favorable, but for one reason or another GSC didn't follow up the idea (it might have been an issue with the publisher of the Russian books). In spring 2011, a small group of fans teamed up to create the first English book. GSC gave them the go-ahead and permitted them to use copy-righted content (game characters, location names and logo).

  • In February 2011, GSC asked the fan community about any interest in English books based on the games. Responses were favorable, but for one reason or another GSC didn't follow up the idea (it might have been an issue with the publisher of the Russian books). In spring 2011, a small group of fans teamed up to create the first English book. GSC gave them the go-ahead and permitted them to use copy-righted content (game characters, location names and logo). By summer 2011, the team consisted of 5 graphic artists from Canada and Hungary, 3 music composers from the UK, Turkey and Poland, 2 authors from the UK and Hungary as well as a proofreader/editor from the UK. Later on, a military advisor with a non-disclosed background also stepped in to proof the manuscript as regards weapons and tactics. As of early August 2012 the book was removed from Amazon in all purchasing options, excluding 3 copies selling for over 900 dollars. The website for the novel now only says "See you when the emission is over" on a black background. As of January 2013, both Southern Comfort and the sequel Northern Passage could be downloaded in full PDF form from the novel's website. The website doesn't work anymore.
