Queen - The Secret Revealed

Year: 1997

Author: Melina Richmond

Publisher: Magic Publications Ltd. (Oct 1997)

ISBN: 0953122506

Price: £12.99

Details: 174 pages; Melina Richmond's life, from childhood through to adulthood, was something of a tragedy played out before uncaring parents, cruel lovers and a husband who tormented her both physically and mentally. But throughout this life she claims to have heard the comforting voice of a long-dead soldier in her head.

The plot thickens when Freddie Mercury, superstar of super-band Queen, died after suffering from AIDS in 1991 and almost immediately contacted Richmond from beyond the grave. And what's more, she believes the voice she hears when she talks to Freddie is the voice of the soldier she has heard in her head since childhood and that the bond they formed in a past life has followed them into this one.

In It's a Kind of Magic, Richmond attempts to prove that Freddie is with her, tracking down his old acquaintances and adversaries to test their reactions to the voice in her head and drawing on familiar Queen lyrics and other writings by and about Freddie Mercury to establish that, even before his death, he was in some way trying to make spiritual contact with her.

It is left to the individual reader to decide whether It's a Kind of Magic is simply the bizarre blatherings of a woman disturbed by her own upbringing and experiences, or whether Richmond is indeed some kind of guardian angel appointed by one of the most peculiarly charismatic and enigmatic icons of the 20th Century to tell his story. Either way, Melinda Richardson tells an outrageously intriguing, if rather rambling, tale that Freddie Mercury afficianados will clamour to read. --Susan Harrison (Amazon.co.uk)

Year: 2003

Author: Daniel Nester

Publisher: Soft Skull Press, U.S. (1 Jul 2003)

ISBN: 1887128271

Price: £8.99

Details: 140 pages; Daniel Nester is clearly not alone in his adoration of this seminal band. And yet this lyrical collection of essays - one for every song recorded by the band in chronological order, from the 1973 debut through to Hot Space, their 1982 flopped "disco" album - is truly a unique creation. Part memoir, part prose poetry, part rock book, Nester draws connections between everyone from Liza Minelli and Leni Riefenstahl to Billie Jean King, touching on Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury's shared kiss in 1981 and ranting about Courtney Love's giggling over Kurt Cobain's mention of Freddie Mercury in his suicide note. Together, the entries for each song add up to a love letter to a band and to a time when all that mattered was a record player and a pair of headphones.
