Bon Jovi book arrives
I just got in last week the new Genesis Book on Bon Jovi. That book was well worth the wait. Another treasure to add to my Genesis collection which started in 1996. I hope for many more years of wonderful books with you. I want to add to my Christmas 2026 wish list of a book on the rock hall of famers the Rascals and put yet another one on my wishlist. The same author who can do a Rascals book put out last year, the best Monkees book that is out there called Smoke Filled Dreams. He has told me that he can do at least 2 more Monkees books because his collection and archives are huge. Micky Dolenz has been contributing to a couple of Genesis books so perhaps some magic can be made if Genesis would do a Monkees book. A little secret--in 1967 they sold more records than the Beatles and Stones. At least I have read that somewhere. So let's have some Rascals and Monkees magic from Genesis. Looking forward to more wonderful books from my dear friends in merry ole England. Cheers. Joey Hornick

Bad customer service
I purchased a book from them. It was going to be for a present for a very good friend of mine, but she decided she didn’t want it. She wanted something else. so less than 12 hours later I phoned Genesis Publications the next day and I canceled my order on the phone and I was told it will take between seven and 10 working days for a refund, which I find unacceptable to wait 10 to 7 days for my refund which is over£400, I find that disgusting to wait so long, they take your money very quickly but refunds take nearly 2 weeks that’s not acceptable. By the way, I’m still haven’t received my refund, so for that reason I would stay away from this company. Also, if I would’ve received my refund quickly, I would have bought something else from their site.

We’re very sorry to hear of your disappointment and that your refund has not yet reached you. We completely understand how frustrating it can be to wait for funds to return after cancelling an order, especially when the purchase was for a gift.
Refunds are processed manually through our secure payment gateway, which is why they can take up to 7–10 working days to appear, due to multiple factors, including bank processing times. However, we always aim to complete them as quickly as possible, and we’re truly sorry this has caused inconvenience.
Looking at our records, please be assured that your refund is being handled, and a member of our team will follow up with you directly to confirm its completion. We value your feedback and hope we can restore your confidence in Genesis. We’d love to welcome you back in future.

The Doors. Night Divides The Day.
I am absolutely delighted with my latest Genesis book. The Doors’ Night Divides The Day is just stunning. The quality of the photographic reproduction on high quality paper is just what a book of this importance needs. The text is fabulous and the history of The Doors is documented with great care and detail. I love the presentation box it comes in as well as the 7” record and 1968 tour programme. I now have 5 of Genesis’ books and they are the ultimate treasures of my library.
