Angels Dance and Angels Die: The Tragic Romance of Pamela and Jim Morrison

A review of the book by Patricia Butler.

Angels Dance And Angels Die:The Tragic Romance of Pamela and Jim Morrison by Patricia Butler is a must read for anyone wanting to get to know the man behind one of the most haunting voices in Rock history and the woman who, for the last five years of his life reigned at his side.

This tale goes further and deeper than the legendary rock band that Jim Morrison fronted. It is a poignant, unapologetic account of the Lizard King and his Faerie Queen. Pamela and Jim Morrison, a couple who's love defied and in some ways defined an era.

I congratulate Patricia Butler on her unflinching quest to capture the essence of the devotion that Jim and Pamela shared. She went beyond the glaring limelight,and stared myths square in the face.

In this book she painstakingly separates the legend from the facts. Dissecting and in some cases dismantling much of the mystery surrounding the life of the American Poet and his Cosmic Mate.

If you love true romances, I definitely recommend this book. Neither shallow or superficial, this book goes straight to the heart of a love that transcends even death to echo through the ages.

How exciting for me to come across your review of my book! Thanks very much for your kind comments. I'm so glad you liked it. If you didn't know, the book is coming out in a new edition (hopefully) next week. A new chapter has been added, and there's a new cover, which I think is so far only up on the Barnes and Noble listing for the book. It's really exciting and gratifying for me that, after ten years, people are still reading and discussing this book. Thank you!
