ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Originally from Hungary, he has been playing the guitar for over 30 years and has always been passionate about rock music. His writings have previously appeared in various rock magazines, but this is his first book.

He has been a devoted admirer of Steve Vai since he first discovered Vai’s music in the mid-1990s, during his teenage years. The idea for this biography first emerged around the year 2000. A complete draft was finished in 2004, but the project was set aside for many years.

In 2023, he returned to the manuscript with a fresh perspective and fully rewrote it—shaping it into the final version soon available to readers.
