Book Review of Hammer of the Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga

Hammer of the Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


An enjoyable, well-written account of the most notorious rockers in history. No holds are barred in describing the wild parties, amazing concert tours, and world travels. My only complaint is that little is written about reclusive bassist John Paul Jones, though he does come out of the woodwork and assume the musical directorship of the band in its final years. The book includes Plant's and Page's post-band travails through approximately 2007.
