A witty and self-deprecating memoir about headbanging your way through growing up.

Seb Hunter was a Heavy Metal fan and he's not proud. This is the story of his misguided 15-year Heavy Metal mission: from the first guitar (his dad's), to the first gig (conquering Winchester with his riffs), on through groupies and girlfriends and too many drugs to a faltering career in London, where outrageous egos, artistic differences and the dreaded arrival of Grunge (and a much needed haircut) kill the Heavy Metal dream.

Along the way Seb imparts the important distinctions between Thrash Metal and Glam and casts his connoisseur's eye over the Metal guitar. You'll learn when to play a drum solo, the correct way to wear Spandex and exactly what to do when you're in the middle of a field at the Donington Festival and you desperately need a piss.

Affectionate, irreverent, and very funny, Hell Bent For Leather is a moving story about growing up, of playing air guitar in your bedroom, of living with parental disapproval and of struggling with the laughter of your friends. It is a memoir about the glorious adolescent obsessions everybody has but no-one will admit to.

Featuring music from: AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Slayer, Kiss, W.A.S.P., Aerosmith The Scorpians and Guns 'n' Roses.

Well written and worth the price!
Format: Paperback
Learning C# by Developing Games with Unity 6 is an excellent resource for anyone looking to dive into game development while building a solid foundation in C#. Harrison Ferrone’s writing is clear, approachable, and well-structured, making complex concepts easy to understand—even for beginners. Even though this book is about learning C#, it also touches on game design, lighting and animation. I especially appreciated how the book balances coding fundamentals with Unity-specific techniques, creating a seamless learning experience. Whether you're new to programming or just new to Unity, this book is a fantastic starting point. Highly recommended for aspiring game developers!

funny and heartwarming
Format: Paperback
What an utter delight, page after page. Funny and heartwarming, it gives June a redemption arc almost as awesome as Zuko's. In the hands of bad writers, June could easily be shallow and one-note. She gets wonderful depth and richness of character development, and of course Iroh is everything fans adore.

A fun read for fans of Uncle Iroh.
Format: Paperback
This is an engaging book for Uncle Iroh and June the Bounty Hunter fans. There is a very noble moment in the book where Uncle Iroh apologizes to June for his inappropriate behavior in her introductory episode and the rest of the book addresses his past as a fire nation general and how he is viewed by some of the people of Ba Sing Se for his actions.
