Charlie Harper’s fascinating story ‘An Anarchy of Demons’ is told in his own unique style, taking the reader through his early years as a ‘war baby’, his time at boarding schools for misfit boys, his adventurous youth, his struggles and escapades as a bass player, his turbulent personal life as well as his incredible journey with the U.K. Subs, as a solo artist and with his many side-project bands. 

Illustrated throughout with many unseen photos from his own collection, this is without doubt, the most talked about punk rock book of the year.

The book boasts a wonderful Foreword written by Rancid’s Lars Frederiksen with the book’s stunning cover artwork being supplied by Steve Dann (Magpie Art), of which the original hangs in Charlie’s house.

‘An Anarchy of Demons’ is available to buy as a paperback, a limited edition hardback as well as an e-Book, all from Earth Island Books, and there’s an accompanying CD with audio tracks of Charlie reading chapters as well as songs featured in the stories, from Engineer Records.
