Just ordered a book called "the black leader"
It's about ancient places in my area. I do know a lot places, but thought I could find some more...

My book had arrived few days ago and I had been reading the first 66 pages...
Well, I was expecting a bit more of it and now i'am a bit dissapointed. It's not really something to recommend...

I ordered a book called "JGTHM. Juhr Gait Tu Hewi Mettäl" ( )which is a satire upon Heavy Metal. It is said to be written by a Metal fan (probably essantial for the topic) and got praise for being extremly funny (given you can actually take it when he kinda makes fun of things you like). Should arrive tomorrow.

It was entertaining and easy to read and since it has a lot of short paragraphs it was just perfect for reading in the train on my way to work or back home. It does have some real nice puns and all that.... but judging from the reviews I had read before I had somehow expected more. It's nothing essential in my eyes.Originally posted by Shadowtear

Wow, I forgot about this thread!
For "Boss's Day," a co-worker gave me:
"Heavy Metal: The Music And Its Culture" by Deena Weinstein
"20th Century Rock And Roll: Heavy Metal" by Martin Popoff (an incredibly knowledgeable metal writer)
And for XMas, my father bought me:
"The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Mythology" by Arthur Cotterel & Rachel Storm (very, very cool book about ALL the ancient mythologies, perfect for a Viking metal-nutjob like myself)

yeah, I have that as well. It was already a bit dated though when I read it a couple of years back (in regards of bands and genres etc).
edit: just realised that maybe we're talking two different books here. I was talking about "Heavy Metal: A cultural sociology" (from 1991) while I just saw there's also a book available with the title you mentioned. Didn't know she had written two books.
Another interesting book to read is "Heavy Metal. Kunst, Kommerz, Ketzerei" by Bettina Roccor. Actually it's more or less her dissertation in form of a book and it covers everything from where Metal came from to the image of fans and musicians as well as the business side of it. Unfortunately only available in German.

I can suggest you:
Summoning - MINAS MORGUL
Summoning - DOL GULDUR (my favourite one)
Summoning - STRONGHOLD
Summoning - LET MORTAL HEROES SING YOUR FAME
ENJOY!
SonOfAbyss
Roaming Through
Dol Guldur is a good favorite, I have three of those but not Let Mortal Heros Sing Your Fame. Only thing is there is no lyric printed, but the artwork and music is cool.
