With free audio sampler In 2001 Will Young shot to fame as the first winner of Pop Idol. It was clear from the start that he would never be a typical pop star
- & more than ten years later he has become one of our best-loved & most intriguing artists. From his dramatic experiences on Pop Idol; to coming out in the glare of the media spotlight; to his valiant struggles against depression; to the crazy reality of being famous Will is open about both the highs & lows of his life. He also provides sound & practical advice on dealing with the DVLA helpline
- something that has been woefully neglected by all other celebrity memoirs. If you have ever wondered what its like to attend a fashion show (and find yourself accidentally waving at Anna Wintour); how it feels to sing in front of thousands while fighting a catastrophic bout of low self-esteem; or be subjected to the terror that is a This Morning makeover then Funny Peculiar reveals all. It also reveals what not to say if you ever meet David Beckham. Moving witty & scrupulously honest Funny Peculiar is a refreshingly different & fascinating autobiography by a true original.

Corey Taylor has seen a lot of unbelievable things. The Grammy Award-winning singer of Slipknot & Stone Sour's curiosity has drawn him into situations that would've sent most people screaming scared & running for the hills. Corey's ballsy enough to go into the darkness & deal with the consequences though. As a result he's seen ghosts up close & personal whether it be while combing through an abandoned house in his native Iowa as a child or recording an album in the fabled Houdini Hollywood Hills mansion. He's also got the memories (and scars) to prove it. For some reason he can't seem to shake these spectral stories & that brings us to this little tome right here... At the same time being an erudite tattooed modern Renaissance Man he never bought into the whole God thing. Simply put he's seen ghosts but he hasn't seen Jesus. Corey especially can't find a reason why people do the insane things they do in his name. That's where everything really gets interesting. His second book A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven compiles Corey's most intimate incredible & insane moments with the supernatural. His memories are as vivid as they are vicious. As he recounts these stories he questions the validity of religious belief systems & two-thous&-year-old dogma. As always his rapid-fire writing razor sharp sense of humour unbridled honesty & cosy anecdotes make quite the case for his point. You might end up believing him or not. That's up to you of course. Either way you're in for a hell of ride. ...
