I am a huge Michael Jackson fan and have read well over 100 books about him. I have even written a book inspired by him ("All For Love"). "What Really Happened To Michael Jackson" promised to reveal interesting information about Michael Jackson in the years close to his death. This information from Mr. Rowe seems quite credible and sheds light on a period of Michael Jackson's life that is largely unknown.
I am rating the book only three stars, however, because only about 48% of the book is about Michael Jackson. The first 42% of the book is about problems Mr. Rowe had a Black event/concert promoter and a discrimination lawsuit he filed in that regard (which was dismissed).
I have been a published Black author for over 20 years and there have been many instances in which I was discriminated against as an author, so I can believe Mr. Rowe's allegations and certainly empathize with him concerning them. But for almost half this book to be devoted to Mr. Rowe's business affairs with almost no reference to Michael Jackson is outrageous, and has no place in this book.
Mr. Rowe says at the end of this first 42%, "I told you all of that, so that I can now begin to tell you the story and help you better understand, what really happened to Michael Jackson, the King of Pop." I strongly disagree. That was instead the point where the book should have began. We didn't need or want to know that huge beginning section of information.
Again, once Mr. Rowe did start his story about Michael Jackson, the information was well written,
interesting, and credible. It's just too bad that Mr. Rowe included such an overwhelming amount of information that had no business in this book.
