I was looking for a relatively objective biography of the man but this one seems to be a sensationalistic hackjob. I started getting wary when I noticed the author doesn't properly cite his work (either he just says "this person claimed this" or, when he does directly quote something, it's already common knowledge). Then I noticed that the most vilifying claims he makes (and there are some awful, awful ones) are completely unreferenced. I know John Lennon was a damaged and flawed individual, but I refuse to believe this crap without clear, reliable references. So, instead I'm reading Pratchet's Last Hero, and then onto the Beatles Anthology. It may not be terribly incisive, but it should be a good read anyway.For my paperback I'm reading Rage of a Demon King by Feist. The second book of the Serpentwar series almost made me give up on it, but this one is picking things up nicely. Not the best fantasy out there IMO, but still worth reading.</blockquote>
