Amazing.

Neil Peart writes in such an engaging way. He's inspiring, honest, and piercingly personal. Loved every minute of this book.

Travel reading excellence

Wow, besides all the great stories Rush fans will enjoy, the book stands out in describing different trips one might like to take and provides many suggestions for music one can listen to along the way. Peart's writing style is easy but informative and Sutherland's audio delivery is smooth and captivating.

Incredibly relevant and endearing to any fan.

To quote Paul McCartney, "what's not to love? ". I love Neil's non linear style. It's difficult to turn it off. It's very much like a twisting road - no idea what's around the next corner, but it's sure to be worth continuing. It's as addicting as listening to Moving Pictures and it easily fills in many of the blanks that I've always been curious about. Thanks for sharing, Neil.

superb!

my favorite of Neil's! gives lots of insight into many aspects of his life and personal history

Sublime Storytelling

So much better than a chance encounter and cheesy awkward selfie with a celebrity. Insightful without unnecessary melodramatic revelations, overall just delightful.
