NW Metalworx Music announced the release of a book on Queensryche, titled “Building An Empire: The Story of Queensrÿche” for October.
The book was written by James R. Beach, Brian L. Naron and Brian J. Heaton.
“When starting on this project, our goal was to write something everyone, from the hardcore fan to the casual listener, could read and learn something new about Queensrÿche,” said Brian Naron. “We’re confident we’ve achieved that and can’t wait to share this with the world.”
“The story of Queensrÿche has so many twists and turns and it needed to be unraveled,” Heaton adds. “At the same time, we wanted to do that with an emphasis on the band’s knack for persevering through every obstacle thrown at them. Queensrÿche is an undeniable success and we hope our words encourage readers to further appreciate the band’s music.”
“Building An Empire: The Story of Queensrÿche”will be issued in various formats―a limited edition collector’s hardcover, a standard paperback, and an electronic version that can be downloaded as a standalone .pdf, or purchased for the Amazon Kindle. The hardcover edition will feature a CD of rare audio interviews with Queensrÿche and an exclusive poster. Pre-orders will start in August on nwmetalworxmusic.com, and later on Amazon.com and other online retail sites.
