Why read it?
1 author picked The Saga of Hawkwind as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Like Nina Antonia, she had a kinship with the musicians she wrote about, garnering stories with ease because they trusted her, and rightly so.
From Zoë's list on music biographies written by women.
