Robert John at the height of the quintet's stardom. Written by Brian L. Naron and Brian J. Heaton, the book will be issued in various formats ― a limited-edition collector's hardcover, a standard paperback, and an electronic version that can be downloaded as a standalone .pdf, or purchased for the Amazon Kindle. The hardcover edition will feature a CD of rare audio interviews with QUEENSRŸCHE and an exclusive poster. Pre-orders will start in August on nwmetalworxmusic.com, and later on Amazon and other online retail sites. "We're excited to finally publish the definitive story of QUEENSRŸCHE," James Beach said. "After providing fans with 40 years of great music, we're delighted to help celebrate the band's success by telling its rich history."
