Educate yourselves on the events leading up to BioShock Infinite with Mind in Revolt, an e-book prequel announced by Irrational Games earlier today.

The 40-page novella, written by writer Joe Fielder and creative director Ken Levine, is a recreation of a publication that appears within BioShock Infinite’s fiction called The Psychology of Dissent: Interview with the Anarchist.

“Since we first announced BioShock Infinite, our fans have asked for more information about Columbia and the complex cast of characters that inhabit the floating city,” said Fielder. “After reading the e-book, players will have a better understanding of BioShock Infinite’s world, the struggle between its factions, and the motivations of key characters, like rebel leader Daisy Fitzroy, without spoiling the mysteries of BioShock Infinite.”

BioShock Infinite: Mind in Revolt will be available through Amazon February 12 for $2.99. Anyone who pre-orders BioShock Infinite through Amazon gets a free copy of Mind in Revolt.
