Amazing In Depth Historical Account!

One if the best historical accounts if the band I've consumed. As an avid Queen fan for the last 30+ years, I've had a lot of information pass through my brain about the band and Freddie and this is in the top 3 best! Worth a listen! I even learned a few things I never knew before.

For Queen fans

I loved it. So many things I learned about all the members of Queen. I enjoyed it very much. Queen forever 💕

Very good, but insufficiently deep

This is a great synopsis of the career of Queen, but does not delve far enough below the surface to be definitive, which is surprising, given that one of the authors runs the Queen fan club. It's unclear if the band were at all involved, but there's nearly nothing here that one couldn't gather from reading Queen's press. A good book for sure, and worth the listen, but it left me wanting a lot more.

Good listen, but some glaring inaccuracies.

I enjoyed the book, however I couldn't stop laughing when It referred to Kansas as a Canadian band

Nicely done

This is a fine, informative history of the entire band, Queen. It is not only about Freddy Mercury. It is a tasteful tribute of the band and it's magnificent lead Singer.
