IRON MAIDEN: 'Infinite Dreams - The Official Visual History' Book Due In The Fall

Bruce will be at Waterstones Piccadilly London on Tuesday to sign copies.
By total coincidence, I will be working very close by that day, but I'm not going to go to the signing (tickets online already sold out when it was announced). But I will probably walk past the queue I expect! Which will be fun on a working day...

Tickets sold out very quickly (before I was aware the event was even taking place!).

For those of you who already have the book, could you tell me a bit more about it and maybe share your own review in your own words?
Give me some little hints and teasers, since I’m still waiting for my copy to arrive.

It’s a nice middle ground for both old and new fans. I feel like if you’re a new fan you can essentially learn the Maiden history with this book; if you’re an old fan there may be some details that you’ll read and go, “Huh, didn’t know that,” but mostly it’s the photos that will draw you in. Lots that I haven’t seen before, not to mention beautiful scans of all the albums (plus some work in progress sketches for some of them), tour gear, etc.

Not to say that I have no critiques at all. I wish that everything past the ‘80s was given the same breadth as the ‘80s were, and there’s a LOTB photo that really shouldn’t have been in black and white. But by and large it’s a terrific book. They even have a whole page dedicated to “Empire of the Clouds” which feels like they designed it just for me lol.
