33 1/3 is a series where writers pitch album biographies to Bloomsbury and the best ones get published. A Bowie one on Low was released back in 2005: https://www.amazon.com/David-Bowies-Low-Hugo-Wilcken/dp/0826416845
The 33 1/3 book by Hugo Wilcken about Low has quite a decent mix of information about the state Bowie and compatriots were in while recording Low as well as info about the techniques and instruments behind some of the tracks. Here's a link to that: http://www.amazon.com/David-Bowies-Low-Hugo-Wilcken/dp/0826416845/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453346390&sr=8-1&keywords=33+1+3+low
and I've heard good things about Tony Visconti's book Bowie, Bolan and the Brooklyn Boy but I haven't read it myself yet:

I haven't read a biography but I have read the very short and very good 33 1/3 on Low and despite focusing on Low it does cover a decent amount of information about Station to Station and goes into the beginning of his Berlin period. I would rank it as one of the most entertaining reads I've ever had, just phenomenal. I haven't read but one other book in that series but I can't believe any of them are as good as this one. Of course it helps that it's about the greatest album of all time.
There is a book written about Low and that period of time. I really want it.
