  Catching Bullets: Memoirs of a Bond Fan

  By Mark O’Connell, Prelude by Barbara Broccoli, Foreword by Mark Gatiss and Afterword by Maud Adams

  When Jimmy O’Connell took a job as chauffeur for 007 producers Eon Productions, it would not just be Cubby Broccoli, Roger Moore and Sean Connery he would drive to James Bond. His grandson Mark swiftly hitches a metaphorical ride on a humorous journey of filmic discovery where Bond movies fire like bespoke bullets at a Reagan-era Catholic childhood marked with divorce, a closet gay adolescence sound-tracked by John Barry and an adult life as a comedy writer still inspired by that Broccoli movie magic.

  Postcards From A Rock & Roll Tour

  By Gordy Marshall, Foreword by Graeme Edge

  Postcards From a Rock & Roll Tour is drummer Gordy Marshall’s witty and wry take on life on the road touring with legendary rock band The Moody Blues.

  Part memoir, part travelogue, it’s a candid, unexpected and often hilarious account of just what it’s like to travel around the world playing to sell-out audiences, living out of a suitcase and spending days and days on a tour bus.

  If you thought being in a rock band was all sex, drugs and rock and roll, then think again….
