Here are some of the best bits!:....

“Honniball has clearly been granted extraordinary access to Pete Doherty... Honniball keeps the narrative on track, but most of his first book is given over to undiluted quotes from the players involved. The result is a sort of literary verite style that offers plenty of authentic insights” - Guardian


“This book gives an amazing insight into the members of the group” –
The Sun

“Flashes of inspiration...” – The Evening Standard (Pick of the Years Rock books, 2008)


“Like all good horror stories, this is gripping stuff!” (4 out of 5 stars) – Mojo

“Bursting with interviews from Pete, Adam, Mik and Drew, ‘Beg, Steal or Borrow’ offers the bands perspective on events such as past band members, album releases, touring, Kate Moss…fascinating!” – XFM Online
