Hello.
I've never owned any Queen books, only the ones that come in the box sets, and I'd like to buy a few. I'd like you to recommend the following:
-Two books about the band's biography.
-Two books of photographs.
-And two books with info about the albums and/or songs.
Thank you.

The Jim Hutton book is a nice genuine insightful read.
In terms of songs, check out the website QueenVault and look at a sample of the book they published. It may or may not be too detailed for you.

Thank you, but I am not interested in solo bios, only Queen band. I'll take note about the QueenVault book. Thanks. Any more suggestions? |

Queen in 3D is an essential as it's a biography and photo book by Brian May himself. |

I have been searching and, in principle, these books will be the ones chosen:
-Biography: Queen: As It Began (Jackie Smith, Jim Jenkins). Just for being the official one.
Is This The Real Life? The Untold Story Of Queen (Mark Blake).
Photo Books: The Neal Preston Photographs (Neal Preston).
Queen Uncovered (Peter Hince).
Albums/Songs: Queen: Complete Works (Georg Purvis).
The Queen Chronology (Patrick Lemieux, AdamUnger).
Queen All The Songs (Benoit Clerk).
Any more recommendations?
Would you change, remove or add any?

Photo book Killer Queen by Mick Rock, a very beautiful crafted book, very delicate (literally), limited and very expensive about 700£ |

40 years of Queen is pretty nice, too.
