Considering that he has built a second successful career out of being barely intelligible, “I am Ozzy” is a well-written account about Ozzy Osbourne’s life so far. The book covers his life from his days growing up in Birmingham to his rise to fame as the lead singer with the 70’s hard-rock/metal group Black Sabbath to – almost 30 years later – becoming one of the biggest stars of reality TV across the globe, with the MTV show “The Osbournes”.

Osbourne’s career has been almost a cliché for rock & roll autobiographies: from his humble beginnings sharing one room with his whole family to changing the face of music with his fellow members of Black Sabbath, Ozzy was making the headlines as one of the most out-of-control rock stars in the history of music. Decapitating bats and birds with his teeth and a lengthy spell as a drug addict, his rise to the top was soon to be met with a hard fall to the ground.

In this book, Osbourne is able to speak about all the famous moments that changed his life, but also shares some behind-the-scenes stories that were to be every bit as significant. This autobiography not only gives a reliable and insightful view into the life of the star, but with such an incredible story to tell, will make for real entertaining reading. Fans of his music and fans of his ‘reality’ TV persona will both enjoy his humorous and candid writing style and you can rest assured that he will leave no stone in his life unturned.
