Vanity Fair, "7 Books We Can't Stop Talking About"
 

"[A] whirlwind of discovery and debauchery that is... loaded with iconic scenes and scenesters..."
―Washington Post

“Powers imbues his epic coming-of-age story with a narrative tension that ping pongs between on-and-off drug abuse (eventually fully off) and a complicated musical partnership with legendary Gun Club maestro Jeffrey Lee Pierce… at turns dark, comedic, and dishy, with occasional tugs at the heartstrings.” ―Vanity Fair

“An entertaining, funny, illuminating, and at times harrowing story from a man who was slap bang centre of the 80s alternative scene… Brian Tristan comes across as a really nice guy. Kid Congo Powers as one of the coolest.”―Louder than War

“A thoroughly entertaining, can’t-put-it-down saga.”
 ―The Ticket (Seattle Times)

"Immensely entertaining.”―Bay Area Reporter

“A juicy and humble account of a joyful yet traumatic life spent in three of the most beloved alternative bands of the 1980s.”
―The Fat Angel Sings

“A dreamlike narrative that maintains a kind of spiritual innocence even as it wades into a sea of rock & roll action, back alley sex, and drugged glory.”
―Aquarium Drunkard
