Deus Ex Paraphernalia
To start my collection of Deus Ex stuff, I searched for and discovered there's an official guide for the console version of Deus Ex 1, which I didn't get, as I'm on PC, and an official guide for Deus Ex Invisible War, Human Revolution, and Mankind Divided, which I did find second hand on ebay recently.
There are also 4 official tie-in books/short-form books, only two of which I was able to acquire; 1. Deus Ex: Icarus Effect, which is a prequel to Human Revolution, and follows the adventures of Ben Saxon from Deus Ex The Fall, and Anna Kelso, his ally. And I also acquired another book, 2. Deus Ex: Black Light, which is about Adam Jensen in the period between Human Revoution and Mankind Divided.

All four official tie-in books are by James Swallow, and the two unavailable-to-purchase books are called Fallen Angel and Hard Line, and James has kindly made the text of them available in PDF format on his website here: https://jswallow.com/book-tag/dx-fiction/ (the two labelled Free Download).
At some point I'd like to research and acquire official figurines.
The original is in my top three games of all time, but hasn't aged all that well in terms of mechanics. I think my favourite game in the series now is Human Revolution due to its mechanics, story telling, and world-hopping adventure, whereas Mankind Divided is amazing, but not as well-travelled.
