Rob Halford is known to everyone as the singer of legendary metal band Judas Priest, where he still sings at 72 years old and the band celebrated fifty years in the scene so much respect and hats off to Rob and the crew for being there so long despite all the hardships, ups and downs and line-up changes. This book is one of the best books that I have read so far this year. This is Rob´s autobiography, from his childhood beginnings at Black Country, as they call the part of the UK from where he is from, to his beginnings with Judas Priest, glory and legendary albums and tours, to his exit from the band, outing as gay, projects after Judas, re-entering the band till these days and still being Metal God as they call him in the scene. What I love about this book that Rob tells his story with autoirony and humor, also there are lots of anecdotes from gigs and tours and cool stories. Other thing that breaks heart is Rob´s almost life long struggle to hide his sexuality being gay in the homophobe scene and coming out and shining on. Through tragedy, loss, sadness we become better people if we survive the hardships, this is something that I as a person still believe. This book and Rob Halford´s story teaches us just that. I recommend this book heartily.
