<i>People say to me, if you could do it all again, knowing what you know now, would you change anything? I'm like, f*** no. If I'd been clean and sober, I wouldn't be Ozzy. If I'd done normal, sensible things, I wouldn't be Ozzy.</i><br/><br/><i>Look, if it ends tomorrow, I can't complain. I've been all around the world. Seen a lot of things. I've done good... and I've done bad. But right now, I'm not ready to go anywhere.</i><br/><br/>At the age of sixty-nine, Ozzy Osbourne was on a triumphant farewell tour, playing to sold-out arenas and rave reviews all around the world.<br/><br/>Then disaster.<br/><br/>In a matter of just a few weeks, he went from being hospitalised with a finger infection to having to abandon his tour - and all public life - as he faced near-total paralysis from the neck down.<br/><br/><i>Last Rites</i> is the shocking, bitterly hilarious, never-before-told story of Osbourne's descent into hell. Along the way, he reflects on his extraordinary life and career - including his turbulent marriage to wife Sharon, his regrets over Black Sabbath's reunion, his friendships with Slash and Zakk Wylde, and the harrowing final moments he spent with Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister.<br/><br/>Unflinching but surprisingly life-affirming, <i>Last Rites</i> demonstrates once again why Ozzy has transcended his status as 'The Godfather of Metal' and 'The Prince of Darkness' to become a modern-day folk hero and national treasure.

<b>For the first time, Charlie Sheen - the star of </b><i><b>Platoon</b></i><b>, </b><i><b>Wall Street</b></i><b>, </b><i><b>Major League</b></i><b> and </b><i><b>Two and a Half Men - </b></i><b>writes the story of his extraordinary life in an unfiltered memoir.</b><br/><br/><i>'We can live the stories or hear about them later from others. I choose the former.'</i><br/><br/>Charlie Sheen shouldn't be alive to write this book. But in <i>The Book of Sheen</i>, the movie and TV star, who has defied the odds, finally presents his story, in his own words. Charlie Sheen was born the third of four children to actor Martin Sheen and his wife, Janet. He grew up on film sets - from his father's all over the world, to his own in Malibu. There, he made ambitious Super 8s, with a roster of friends who went on to become household names, including his brother Emilio, Sean and Chris Penn and the Lowe brothers.<br/><br/>Sheen broke into movies in the 1980s, playing a hoodlum in <i>Ferris Bueller's Day Off</i>, a young soldier in <i>Platoon</i> and an ethically compromised trader in <i>Wall Street</i>. But somewhere along the way, despite a successful transition to TV leading man in <i>Spin City </i>and <i>Two and a Half Men</i>, Sheen descended into a vortex of extracurricular activities.<br/><br/>Now sober, Sheen delivers a clear-eyed narrative of his highs and lows with humour, candour and a vivid, captivating writing style that is uniquely his. <i>The Book of Sheen</i> reads like a far-fetched, overstuffed novel of Hollywood life - yet it is all true.
