Ozzy Osbourne Prepares to Share His Story One Final Time in New Memoir Last Rites — Out This October

Heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne has officially announced his upcoming memoir, Last Rites, set for publication this October. The book promises a deeply personal look into the life of one of rock’s most iconic and unpredictable figures.

Known worldwide as the "Prince of Darkness," Ozzy has already lived a life documented in countless interviews, TV appearances, and previous books. But Last Rites is being described as his definitive story — covering everything from his early days with Black Sabbath to his solo career, family life, health struggles, and everything in between.

In Last Rites, Osbourne reportedly offers unfiltered reflections on his near-mythical career as well as the private battles fans rarely see. It’s expected to touch on recent years, including his public health issues, farewell tours, and ongoing love for music even as he faces life’s final chapters.

This isn’t Ozzy’s first time putting his life into print — his bestselling 2010 memoir I Am Ozzy gave readers a wild, often hilarious glimpse into his chaotic world. But Last Rites promises a more introspective, final word from a man who has seen it all, done it all, and somehow lived to tell the tale.

Last Rites will be available in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook formats. Fans can expect further details, including pre-order information and special editions, in the coming weeks.
