Sci-Ence! Justice Leak!

Kinks book cover

Posted in books by Andrew Hickey on August 27, 2012

I’m putting the final touches to the Kinks book now, and so I thought I’d upload the cover.With luck the book should be out later today or tomorrow.

Incidentally, this book is going to be the test case as to whether I should write any more of these music books. If it sells reasonably well and gets good reviews, I plan on doing books on George Harrison’s solo music and David Bowie, among others. If, on the other hand, it gets the kind of Amazon reviews my other music books get (from people who don’t understand the concept of criticism, and have bought the books thinking they’re something else) I’ll be sticking to the books on comics and TV, and to fiction. So if you want more of these, buy the book and review it on Amazon, and if you don’t, then don’t…

(I will be continuing to write books no matter what — it’s just a matter of what kind of writing I prioritise).

Also, the Beach Boys books will come out no matter what, because you don’t write a vol 1 and then leave people hanging waiting for vols 2 and 3.

Anyway, here’s the cover. What do you think?

    I will definitely buy this! I love your analysis of my favorite band of all time. I hope you can eventually do the later years too!!! I think they’re undervalued.

      Well, thank you! I doubt I’ll cover the later years, simply because I have much less to say about them, but you never know.

      Also, I’ve edited your comment, as you left your email address and the date at the end, presumably by accident, and I don’t want you to get spammed by address-harvesting bots.

    You want to make subtitle smaller, so that the title and subtitle take up the same width. Other than that, dandy.

    I agree with pennyb; and I like the photo, nicely evocative of the urban U.K…..
