Daron's Guitar Chronicles: Volume 3

A gay slow burn romance, a coming of age tale, and a coming out story, all at once.

“Daron’s Guitar Chronicles is like Almost Famous, except in this story the boy isn’t so innocent.”

—The Bright List

"If you haven’t been reading the story, I highly recommend you [do]. If you’re not sure, let me say this: rock band, late 1980s, slash… and everything else, really."

—Esoteric Renaissance

What’s a young, gay guitarist to do when his father’s a homophobic jerk who might be embezzling from the band, and his lead singer can’t decide which he wants more, control of the band or love? Daron learns when the band hits the road for the first time that there’s much more to holding a band together than good music. As they cross the country in a rented van—Philadelphia, New Orleans, Austin, San Francisco—there’s no avoiding trouble.

Sex, drugs, and rock and roll... if only it were that simple.

Readers speak!

“This series just gets better and better. I read it each week online and then I buy the books so that I can re-read it all in one hit. Cecilia Tan is a fab writer who really brings these characters to life.”

“I get let in to Daron’s world so much each book that I feel like I know him face-to-face. I feel like I can begin to read his thoughts like a friend that I’ve known years. Again, keep reading. Get all into it. You will be glad you did. I can’t even express the awe I get from the series. This is the most connected I have ever been to a story.”

“The love story is there—the tension and rise and fall of drama between Ziggy and Daron is gorgeously, deftly maintained throughout. But there’s more than that, and while I can’t wait to see what happens next in this insane, wonderful romance... I also started looking into picking up my bass and starting to play some music again.”
