Product Description

Product Description

This fascinating biography provides a detailed portrait of a man who has become a rock god. Jon Bon Jovi is Bon Jovi's focus and figurehead and the book charts his relationship with the other band members who have their fair share of rock and roll stories - sex, booze, burnouts, health and women problems. Jon Bon Jovi is a high-energy, charismatic international superstar and one of the top frontmen of rock. Bestselling writer Laura Jackson explores the personality, character, drive and the determination that have taken him from playing New Jersey clubs through all the groupie excess and glamorous indulgence to where the band is today. Although rock music is Jon Bon Jovi's first love he has more recently developed an interest in acting and scoring music for Hollywood films - his score for Young Guns earned him an Oscar nomination and he has recently had a part in Ally McBeal.


About the Author

Laura Jackson is a highly regarded biographer; Her previous books include Paul Simon: the definitive biography, Bono: the biography, Sean Bean: the biography, Queen: the definitive biography, and Ewan McGregor: a force to be reckoned with (all Piatkus)

2.0 out of 5 stars I wouldn't recommend it, 2 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Jon Bon Jovi: The Biography (Hardcover)
I have been a great Bon Jovi fan for many years, but sorry I would not recommend this book. The book told me nothing that I didn't already know about how Bon Jovi started out and how their success grew around the world to become what they are today.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!!, 23 May 2008
By Jake M "terbo08" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Jon Bon Jovi (Paperback)
I really do diagree with all the other reviewers about this book, probably because I knew very little about Jon's life before I read it.
"Jon Bon Jovi" goes into great detail about the great man's early years and how the legendary rock band Bon Jovi came to be, I found the whole thing totally interesting and once I picked it up, I found it hard to put back down. Brilliantly written and makes for compulsive reading, this really is a wonderful portrait of a legend.
If you're looking for a good read, I recommened this biography.
