Esports Zone - Booklist

The Esports Zone series gives this high-interest topic the consideration it deserves. The titles begin with a quick overview of a real-life, high-profile esports event and fast facts to hook readers and introduce the broader topic. Individual chapters then offer more details in an accessible manner. Esports Careers helps readers see beyond just gaming to consider essential esports jobs, such as coaching, communications, and coding, as well as the education and skills they will need to develop. Following a look at skills and gear needed to participate in esports, Esports Championships offers advice on finding fellow gamers, joining local esports teams, and preparing to compete at a pro level. Starting with a discussion on how amateur and pro esports athletes compete and potentially earn money, Esports Superstars highlights historical champions, from the first winner at a Stanford University esports competition in 1972 to Stephens Col- lege’s all-female varsity esports team. Esports Technology explains how augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence intersect in gaming, as well as current tech requirements and gaming developments on the horizon. Each volume features a sleek design with terrific representation of gamers and emphasizes a balance of screen time with healthy habits. Inclusive and appealing, this series will be a hit with young gamers.
