In the ten years since the death of David Bowie in 2016 there has been no loss of interest in and fascination with his life, music and driven, complex personality. Quite the opposite - he is definitely one musician, one performer, destined not to be forgotten. The significant grief and sadness that greeted his death has evolved into a deeper, enduring love for his music, style, wit, artistic curiosity, sexual energy, flamboyant outsider spirit and insatiable, provocative appetite for life.

Far Above the World will document one of the UK's greatest creative artists, capturing his formative years before he became a household name, and then taking the reader through a spectacularly colourful and vibrant journey of a man who constantly reinvented himself and his music.
