The first and heaviest of the heavy metal monsters, they violently shook the foundations of rock music and took no prisoners on the road. Their tours were legendary, their lives were exalted—and in an era well known for sex and drugs, the mighty Zeppelin set an unattainable standard of excess and mythos for any band that tried to follow them. They were power, they were fantasy, they were black magic. No band ever flew as high as Led Zeppelin or suffered so disastrous a fall. And only some of them lived to tell the tale. Hammer of the Gods is the New York Times bestselling epic saga of the hard reign of Page, Plant, Jones, and Bonham—a spellbinding, electrifying, no-holds-barred classic of rock 'n' roll history that has now been updated to include the continuing adventures of the band. Review: Zeppelin fans... read this book! - I'm a Plant/Page/Jones/Bonzo fan. I read this one in 5 days while on vacation. A page turner about the inner circle workings of Led Zeppelin, funny and sad stories about their formation, the magik music, the triumphs and roadblocks... their issues with unfair media coverage and the struggles they had to endure. I did tear up multiple times while reading! Review: you better believe it - apologies if this seems to be repeated - i swore i did everything right and entered this review yesterday......... This is a good book(Zep members would call it fiction) I read this when it first came out in 1986 (that may have been the "added chapter including Live Aid") twice in between then more recently, my original copy had yellowed, worn down or was just 1/3 highlighted. I find it strange that people put down this book - while its listed in bibliographies of the GOOD Led Zep books. Although i cant comment on the fact the main source was from someone LZ had fired -no names -Richard Cole - the book at times seems to focus on the antics drugs, boozing, groupies, violence. However, the History of the band is accurate! At the time there were less than 5 books on Zep- but two were available in England (those by Ritchie Yorke - authorized by the band, and Chris Welch MM writer and friend of Pages first then the band.) Not everyone in the US could access them - face it kids we didn't have Internet. (what we did have was specialty record stores, fanzines and fans long distant calling each other or just cassette trading.) I myself enjoyed reading "hammer" , Mr Davis traces the roots of Zep, analyzes the music does his research and is a good writer. If this book is such trash as some fans call it -why did it make the Best Seller list? OK maybe in the book Mr Davis crosses the line about the so called events of the band, but it is a good telling of LZ history (This is the only book to my knowledge where he mentions Page and Roy Harper wrote songs together during Zep days and Plant read about it in a farming magazine - what gives?) I like this book and therefore give it 5 stars, send your hate mail to .(LOL) David Terralavoro ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 791 Reviews | ## Images ![Hammer of the Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga―The Ultimate Rock and Roll Chronicle with Electrifying Detail, Dive Deep into the Legend of Led Zeppelin - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WdqNU4DKL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Zeppelin fans... read this book! *by M***B on August 8, 2026* I'm a Plant/Page/Jones/Bonzo fan.

Well, I disagree. In fact, told from a first person's perspective, I found it to be much better. That's not to say this isn't an excellent biography of Led Zeppelin. It is quite good and I definitely enjoyed it. This book doesn't just start with Led Zeppelin but gives full background particularly starting with Jimmy Page who had the earlier Yardbirds. What becomes evident from reading this book is how the chemistry of the members made the band what it was. I knew Led Zeppelin but really didn't follow their music in depth. This book really fills in the holes and shows what they created which they probably never have received full credit for. Hey, they're not the Beatles or Stones. But what they did in their genre and how they worked so hard and stayed together without much in-fighting to create this magic is well represented in this book. They book does cover the groupie debauchery with which I had some familiarity from previously reading Pamela des Barres' book "I'm With the Band". But I didn't find it to be covered in total depth, more in rumor. Also, their black magic fetish is really not clear but without a question Jimmy Page particularly is a weird dude. As is typical, drugs and alcohol eventually take their toll but to the credit of the group, when a member is lost, the group doesn't try to weather on and steal money. How these guys survived this to live normal productive lives is probably as interesting as anything. Overall, a very good read on an epic musical influence that I strongly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hammer of the Gods: The Led Zeppelin Saga - Stairway to Heaven: Led Zeppelin Uncensored --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/2924070-hammer-of-the-gods-the-led-zeppelin-saga-the-ultimate](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/2924070-hammer-of-the-gods-the-led-zeppelin-saga-the-ultimate) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-11-04*
