Ronnie James Dio was a heavy metal icon and frontman of
three of the best-selling, most influential and famous rock bands
in history: Rainbow, Black Sabbath and his own multi-million
selling band, Dio.

Rainbow in the Dark “is a rollercoaster ride through the extraordinary
highs and lows of Dio’s life, and takes us from his early days as a street
gang leader and Doo-wop singer in ’60s Vegas through to his breakout
success with Rainbow and Black Sabbath in the ’70s and the stadiums of
US metal in the ’80s – ending in Dio’s dressing room at Madison Square
Garden, in June 1986, at the peak of his worldwide fame with Dio.

Tragically Dio passed away from cancer in 2010, but had already begun
writing a memoir before his death. Edited by the world-renowned music
biographer Mick Wall, with the involvement of Dio’s wife of over 35 years
and personal manager Wendy Dio, Rainbow in the Dark will honour and
feature Dio’s never-before-seen original manuscript, while drawing on the
extraordinary collection of print and audio interviews with the man himself
to produce a vivid, raw and faithful portrait of one of the world’s greatest
ever rock legends.”
