'As band members, you share a unique bond that no one else can truly understand, not even family. That brotherhood comes with a long career like ours. We all felt part of something special, trusted each other, and they trusted me. I never let them down. It was always a give-and-take by everybody.' – Jon Bon Jovi

Offering fans the first-ever anthology of Bon Jovi, Bon Jovi: Forever is narrated by Jon Bon Jovi and illustrated with hundreds of photographs and items of memorabilia from the band's personal archives.

With unlimited access to Bon Jovi's extensive archive, Bon Jovi: Forever chronicles the band's remarkable 40-year history.

The meticulously curated collection of over 1,300 images showcases a treasure trove of memorabilia, including handwritten lyrics, tour passes and posters, iconic stage costumes, guitars, studio track lists, and personal snapshots from the band's private collections. Complemented by an array of vivid photographs that capture Bon Jovi live, backstage, on tour, and in the studio, this book offers fans a rare, behind-the-scenes look at the band's enduring legacy.

Bon Jovi: Forever is more than just a book; it's an all-access pass to the world of Bon Jovi, making it an essential piece for any fan of the band or lover of rock music.

'I never laid out a plan for what I wanted people to feel from listening to our songs. If a song is pure of heart, if it comes from an emotional place and is not just 'crafted', chances are the listener will take that story and make it their own.' - Jon Bon Jovi

Through exclusive interviews, Jon Bon Jovi shares the intimate stories behind the artifacts, shedding light on the creative process behind his songwriting, the making of the band's legendary albums, and the key performances that cemented Bon Jovi's place in rock history.

Jon's 35,000-word narrative describes writing lyrics in his high school notebooks, playing the Asbury Park scene as an ambitious teenager, recording his first hit 'Runaway' and igniting the band's 'rocket ship to success' (soon to be followed by the multi-platinum albums Slippery When Wet and New Jersey), and, four decades on, brings us right up to date with the making of the band's recent 16th studio album, Forever. His candid reflections offer a deeper understanding of the band's brotherhood, their distinctive style, and the unwavering trust that fuelled their success.

'After Slippery When Wet everything changed for us. That's when our parents first realised that people knew who we were. Now we were mainstream. We became the centrefold of the magazine, the cover of the magazine, the guys on TV shows.' - Jon Bon Jovi 

'I was single-minded. There was no plan B, even before there was an audience. It was just the feeling that you got singing a song, and then playing in a band. There was something in that electricity, in the sheer sound of loud. There was something about it that captured my imagination.' - Jon Bon Jovi

Over an illustrious career spanning more than three decades since their formation in 1983, Bon Jovi has earned their place among global rock royalty and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as well as the Songwriters Hall of Fame. With over 130 million albums sold worldwide, an extensive catalog of hit anthems, thousands of concerts performed in more than 50 countries for more than 35 million fans, and ticket grosses well over $1 billion around the world in the last decade alone, Bon Jovi is the consummate rock and roll band.

Bon Jovi: Forever is published in a limited edition of only 1,500 numbered copies worldwide, each hand signed by Jon Bon Jovi.

Quarter-bound in black vegan leather, the front cover is printed with an image of the denim jacket worn by Jon on the 2024 Forever album cover, with embossed 'BON JOVI' and 'FOREVER' lettering. The 264-page book is finished with silver foil lettering on the spine, a silver foil heart and dagger on the back cover and silver page edging. Each copy is individually numbered and hand signed by Jon Bon Jovi.

Presented in a black clamshell box with a silver heart and dagger foiled on the front cover, the interior lining is printed in a colour montage of Bon Jovi tour passes and pins. The interior lid holds an exclusive 7" single. This chrome-coloured vinyl will present two specially selected recordings, which will be announced shortly.

A compartment under the book includes exact replicas of the following items held in the Bon Jovi archive: Three Bon Jovi pins/badges and two guitar picks in a small cloth bag, a VIP Have a Nice Day tour pass and Jon Bon Jovi's personal All Access laminate pass for the 1984 Runaway tour. A large pull-ribbon, printed with the Bon Jovi logo, lifts the book from the handcrafted case.
