Product Description

Synopsis

Glasgow, 1972, and all the coolest kids in town are queuing up for Led Zeppelin tickets. Overhead, a Zeppelin approaches. Its passengers, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Hank Williams, think it's worth leaving heaven to see the greatest rock band in the world. Even the fairies are fans. Martin and Greg have overactive imaginations. When they aren't fighting the monstrous hordes of Xotha, they are competing for the attentions of Suzy. But she's not likely to ditch Zed, the hippest boy in the school, for the likes of them, is she? Still, with Led Zeppelin on the way, anything can happen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suzy, Led Zeppelin and Me captures teenage angst perfectly., 8 May 2002
By A Customer
I've read most - maybe all - of Martin Millar's books but Suzy, Led Zeppelin and Me has got to be his best one yet. It's about being a teenage boy in the seventies, obsessed (you've guessed it) with Suzy and Led Zeppelin. You don't have to be a man or a Led Zep fan to appreciate this book (I'm not either). It is funny, moving - some really sad things happen - and completely compelling. You'll read it in one sitting. I don't think I've ever read a book that captures so well, yet so simply, the feeling of being a teenager. And Millar favourites, the fairies, appear too. Along with dragons and dead rock stars like Jimi Hendrix and Janice Joplin.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book., 13 Jul 2002
By Ian Maxun (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
I thought this book was excellent. Most of it is very funny. Lots of sub plots revolving round the Led Zeppelin gig, appearances from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the Scottish fairies, teenage angst and more. With some unexpected tragedy along the way, made all the more effective by its unexpectedness. Martin Millar is one of my favourite authors and this is as good as anything he's written.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book I've read in Years, 29 Sep 2003
For all those like me that can remember and still articulate the smells and sounds of rock n roll in the seventies and early 80's. The girls, the noise, the sweaty theatres called odeons and Apollos.

Interwoven with 90's cool, 70's metal , tragedy and love, this book is all about obsession and the belief in rock.

Buy it now, you will not regret
