The Real Stanley Baxter
Stanley Baxter delighted over 20 million viewers at a time with his television specials. His pantos became legendary. His divas and dames were so good they were beyond description. Baxter was a most brilliant cowboy Coward, a smouldering Dietrich. He found immense laughs as Formby and Liberace. And his sex-starved Tarzan swung in a way Hollywood could never have imagined. But who is the real Stanley Baxter? The comedy actor's talents are matched only by his past reluctance to colour in the detail of his own character. Now, the man behind the mischievous grin, the twinkling eyes and the once-Brylcreemed coiffure is revealed. In a tale of triumphs and tragedies, of giant laughs and great falls from grace, we discover that while the enigmatic entertainer could play host to hundreds of different voices, the role he found most difficult to play was that of Stanley Baxter.

Baxter's Requiem

Baxter's Bold Cub
He’d never felt pain so deep... Empathic alpha Vincent Baxter had rescued dozens of abused beta bear-shifters, but he’d never met one like Kinny Cross.

Claimed by a sadistic mate who delights in torturing him, Kinny found himself imprisoned by metal and unable to shift for years. Convinced he’ll die long before he’s rescued, Kinny is shocked to find not only hope for a normal life but also a profound attraction to a true alpha male like Baxter.

Chaise Longue
AN UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEAR AN EVENING STANDARD BEST NON-FICTION PICK A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR Chaos and debauchery defined Baxter Dury's turbulent childhood. Abandoned by his punk rock star dad Ian Dury in the late 80s, Baxter was left in the hands of the Sulphate Strangler: a volatile, six-foot-seven drug dealer who lived up to his name. What could possibly go wrong? In a period that we can now only imagine, a young Baxter ricocheted from one adventure to the next, narrowly swerving one disaster only to collide with another. Chaise Longue is an intimate account of those escapades, evocatively illuminating a bohemian west London populated with feverishly grubby characters. Narrated in Dury's candid tone, both sad and funny, this moving story will leave an indelible imprint on its readers. 'Wild, exhilarating and very funny' Sunday Times 'A must-read for pop culture fans' The Times 'Unflinching' Observer 'Razor sharp and side-splitting throughout, [this] is one rock autobiography not to miss' Mojo 'Amusing, alarming and subtly sad, punctuated by mind boggling anecdotes related with nuance and zest' Daily Telegraph
