Critics Review

INSTANT PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER
“An inspiring read… Just Beyond The Light is undoubtedly essential reading for every metalhead, but anyone can relate to Blythe’s struggles and aspirations, and benefit from and appreciate his insights and efforts on making peace with one’s self.”–Geeks of Doom
“Metal frontman Randy Blythe has shed his demons, at least for now, and you can too. That’s his message. But don’t think it’ll be easy. Whether surfing, belting out lyrics, or staying sober, Blythe attacks life swinging–there’s no other way–and finds light and beauty. Perceptive, profoundly moral, and heartachingly honest, he tells stories in Just Beyond the Light that not only move and entertain us, they just might make us better people.”–Dean King, nationally best-selling author of “Skeletons on the Zahara” and “Guardians of the Valley”
“Part memoir, part philosophy, all page-turner, Just Beyond the Light gives a fascinating and surprisingly uplifting glimpse into the mind of a heavy metal icon.”–Jay Kristoff, New York Times bestselling author of “Empire of the Vampire”
“Unnervingly raw and honest, this book is timeless wisdom that was earned the hard way.”–Mark Manson, author of “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck”
“A rousing self-contemplation from a man who has lived it and yes, finally and exhaustingly, learned from it all. I know well of the things Randy writes about in Just Beyond the Light, and he articulates so well the trip from the darkness.”–Duff McKagan, Guns N’ Roses, author of “It’s So Easy” and “How To Be a Man”
“If you’ve ever wanted to take a road trip with Randy Blythe–and who wouldn’t?–here’s your chance. Just Beyond the Light is a fascinating exploration of life’s biggest questions that’s as entertaining as it is enlightening, as smart as it is heartfelt, as profound as it is unpretentious–just absolutely shot through with generosity of spirit and the rarest kind of intellectual honesty. Followers of the music and of Blythe’s first book won’t be surprised at what great company he makes, but fresh fans are in for a special treat, set to discover the restless, funny, questing, heavy metal Geoff Dyer they didn’t know they needed. I loved this book.”–Catherine Baab-Muguira, author of “Poe for Your Problems”
