“Simply beautiful” Elle (Germany, Austria and Switzerland), April 2003
“You’re a fool to miss out” Mojo, April 2003

“An extravagant coffee-table book that collects Mick Rock’s photographs of the chameleon rock star as Ziggy Stardust … there is more than enough for both the casual Bowie fan and the obsessive.” The Observer, January 2003″The closest we’ll ever get to a straight-up Bowie autobiography – but who’d ever want anything straight-up from Bowie?” Rolling Stone, September 2012
“This is a book of extraordinary photographs. Ziggy Stardust blazed briefly but intensely, and I am delighted to see his life and times as a rock’n’roll star immortalised in this beautiful limited edition.” David Bowie
