Steve Malins

I, too, am a life long fan and felt this was merely a collection of magazine articles. I didn't really come across anything that wasn't already general knowledge for the average fan. There also seemed to be an over abundance of detail to the origins of the band but I felt a lot of info was missing during their career in the 90s. It left me wanting to know more.

This book really could have been written by anyone who has been a fan of the band for any length of time. "Duranies" tend to be rather fanatical and there wasn't much in here I didn't already know. There were also some errors in the book, some in reprinted lyrics. If you like the band but don't know a lot about them, it might be an interesting read. If you're a long time fan, you really don't need to bother reading this.
