Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me by Martin Millar

Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me by Martin Millar

Glasgow, 1972. All the coolest kids in town are lining up for Led Zeppelin tickets. Overhead, a Zeppelin approaches. Its passengers-Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Hank Williams-think it's worth leaving heaven to see the greatest rock band in the world. Even the fairies are fans. Meanwhile, nerdy Martin and his equally nerdy best friend Greg have overactive imaginations. When they aren't fighting the monstrous hordes of Xotha, they are competing for the attentions of a popular (read- unattainable) girl named Suzy. She's not likely to ditch Zed, the hippest boy in the school, for the likes of them, is she? Then again, with Led Zeppelin on the way, it feels like anything can happen. Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me takes readers on a ride through Martin's angsty and fumbling youth, when Led Zeppelin comes to Glasgow and rocks Martin's world, and through his angstridden and fumbling adult years, when he learns what can't be denied- love may break your heart, but Led Zeppelin will never let you down.

Martin Millar was born in Glasgow, Scotland, but has spent most of his life in London, England. He's written a variety of works, including novels, plays, short tales, and articles. Suzy, Led Zeppelin, and Me, his most recent work, is set in Glasgow. Love and Peace with Melody Paradise; Milk, Sulphate, and Alby Starvation; Lux the Poet; The Good Fairies of New York; Dreams of Sex and Stage Diving and Ruby; and The Stone Age Diet are among Millar's other works. Millar is a fan of Jane Austen's writings and has written a theater adaptation of Emma.

He even penned the novelization for the film Tank Girl. Last but not least, Millar writes the Thraxas series as Martin Scott. He's written five so far, the first of which won him the World Fantasy Award. Millar enjoys watching Buffy The Vampire Slayer, reading history books, especially those about ancient Greece, and playing the flute when he is not writing.
