While this page works, I have been unable to reproduce the Google search
for some reason.

This website
http://eager.back2roots.org/PROG/H/HARE.HTML
says that he worked on the *unpublished* "Lone Wolf and the Ice Halls of
*Doom*". (I can find no other reference to the Ice Halls of Doom on the
web.)

Jon Hare himself still seems to work in the computer game industry. On
30/01/06 he was still working on Sensible Soccer 2006 for Codemasters.
Their following press release is on their website:
http://www.codemasters.co.uk/press/?showarticle=7843

Perhaps he could be contacted through them?
