Wings Of Forever:
Power Quest was conceived in 2001 by keyboardist Steve Williams, who had departed power metal band DragonHeart (now known as DragonForce). Steve Scott (of DragonHeart) was recruited for bass duties, along with Adam Bickers on guitar, and for the initial demo recordings both Sam Totman and ZP Theart (both of DragonHeart) lent their guitars and vocals to the process. In April 2002 vocalist Alessio Garavello was recruited to the Power Quest ranks. He was accompanied by the guitarist of his band, Arthemis, Andrea Martongelli, who recorded a few guest solos on the first album - Wings of Forever. Following the album’s release, he was recruited as a full-time member to replace Bickers who left to pursue a career as a doctor.
Neverworld:
In January 2003, Andre Bargmann was brought in as drummer for Power Quest. Bargmann left the band in July that year, following the release of Neverworld. His place was filled on the tour by Last Hours of Torment drummer Gavin Ward, and eventually on a more permanent basis by Francesco Tresca
Magic Never Dies:
In November 2004 the band headed back to Thin Ice studios to record songs for the new album. The band followed this with a Magic Never Dies Tour, where vocalist Alessio Garavello also took on a role as rhythm guitarist . In October, 2007 an official Napalm Records MySpace blog post announced that Power Quest have signed to Napalm Records.
Master of Illusion:
In 2007, Steve Williams announced that there would be five guest appearances on the forthcoming recordings.

Yesterday I've seen online their show in the Snooty Fox club - http://www.livestream.com/snootyfoxlive - and I must admit that their new lead singer Colin really kicked ass! :-) I just hope I will see them live with my own eyes someday. They should come here to Czech Republic (Masters of Rock festival would be nice) or at least somewhere nearby, Germany or Austria perhaps...
