Bowie Odyssey: Book by Book, Year by Year - the ultimate literary trip through Bowie's greatest decade with author Simon Goddard

Simon Goddard has written more books on David Bowie than any other author.

His novelistic Bowie Odyssey series, described as “the best Bowie books ever written” by BBC 6 Music’s Marc Riley and “by far the most entertaining Bowie books” by Smiths/Blur producer Stephen Street, has repeatedly made the best music books of their year lists in the Sunday Times (2020, 2024), Mojo (2023) and Classic Pop (2025).

The politically charged seventh in the ten-book series, Bowie Odyssey 76, was published earlier this year to five-star reviews.

Simon will be discussing the series so far including the forthcoming eighth volume on 1977, “a breakneck tale of mortality and stardom”, out early 2027.
