New Diary Entry! Autobiography and Biography
Here's a couple of links to interviews I have done recently with two excellent websites: the British rock site Get Ready To Rock and the Swedish site Metal Shrine. Both sites have also generously reviewed my Judas Priest book too.

Just as I have begun writing Al Atkins' book Dawn Of The Metal Gods: My Life In Judas Priest & Heavy Metal for Iron Pages a new Judas Priest book is out now in Germany by Matthias Mader (of Iron Pages.) It's filled with loads of great pictures of the band and of vintage memorabilia. It makes a nice companion piece to my own book on the Mighty Priest.

Since its release last month my first book has been getting some excellent reviews. What the rock critics said:
“Despite the lack of co-operation from the band members, he has put together a very thorough and detailed book about these legends of Heavy Metal … One of the most interesting parts of the book for me were Daniels' informative album reviews … If renewing the reader's interest is one of the main motives of a rock book, then this book has succeeded in it. Not to mention that it's altogether a very entertaining read …”
Kimmo Toivonen – Rock United (www.rockunited.com)
“Neil Daniels is great on the early history of Brummie metal legends Judas Priest. He’s quick to dispel the notion that Judas Priest were formed by guitarist KK Downing and bassist Ian Hill, pointing out that an incarnation of the band existed in 1969 before those two joined …”
Geoff Barton – Classic Rock Magazine
“Neil Daniels has written a tantalizing book on the history of Metal Gods Judas Priest … The author covers the suicide trial, the drummer’s perversion and every other Priest era with historical data and in-depth interviews with all who were there at the time … for not being granted current access to the band he did an amazing job … Simply put, it is a good read.”
Jeb Wright – Classic Rock Revisited (www.classicrockrevisited.com)
“It’s all here, as is a detailed account of every album and tour making BC scribe Neil Daniels’ first book an essential purchase for Halford and Priest fans. A comprehensive and informative read, this is true British steel!”
Ian Chaddock – Big Cheese
