Reviews

From the start it's clear that Barker is in a class by himself
LOCUS
Gushing gore and flying flesh ... read it with gloves on ... This one will have your fingers twitching if you don't watch out
TIME OUT
Clive Barker is an important, exciting and enormously talented writer. .. I literally could not read him alone. His stories are compulsively readable and original. He is an important, exciting and enormously talented writer ... What Barker does makes the rest of us look like we've been asleep for the last ten years
STEPHEN KING
Clive Barker writes about horrors most of us would scarcely dare imagine ... He takes the horror story into places it has never gone before. He is one of the major writers of his generation
