Publisher's Note
Paul Di'Anno's tale is one of drugs, guns, and alcohol; of extended periods banged up in prison; and of his time fronting the mighty Iron Maiden. His controversial antics off-stage are even more shocking than his existence under the spotlights. He has battled drug addictions and tumbled from the heights of fame to the pit of bankruptcy. This is a look into the dark and disturbing times of a man who had spent his whole life courting his demons.
