Reviews
"Iceton captures the raw, visceral world of rock music for what it is - a place of Gods and Monsters, where music pulls people apart and puts them back together like nothing else. But the book is more than that - it's a loving and perceptive exploration of the rock and roll mythology. A sheer love of music pulsates through every word. A thrilling, incisive rock 'n' roll mammoth of a book." - Guy Mankowski, author of Letters for Yelena and An Honest Deceit; "This is a gritty, witty take on the heady myths and harsh realities of rock 'n' roll." - Adam Hansen, Northumbria University, author of Shakespeare and Music.
