Last Rites captures Ozzy Osbourne's final reflections on a life of triumphs and trials, beginning with his 2018 farewell tour halted by a thumb infection that spiraled into near-total paralysis, multiple surgeries, a Parkinson's diagnosis, and battles with addiction that kept him offstage for years.​
Osbourne recounts his improbable path from Birmingham's working-class streets and Black Sabbath's formation to solo stardom, personal losses like the deaths of bandmates Randy Rhoads and Ronnie James Dio, and his enduring marriage to Sharon amid the chaos of fame and family life on The Osbournes.​
Completed days before his July 2025 passing, the audiobook—delivered in Osbourne's raw, gravelly voice with emotional contributions from family—culminates in his triumphant "Back to the Beginning" Birmingham reunion with Black Sabbath, offering unflinching humor, shocking revelations, and life-affirming wisdom on resilience, regret, and the fans who made him an icon.
