ReviewsBarker just keeps getting better--and he's doing it not just by perfecting the horrific craft but by transcending the genre itself, moving eyond his grisly early tales to embrace epic fantasy and elements of science fiction. . . Barker may brandish a razor in one hand, but he brandishes art in the other. (Kansas City Star)|9780061769054|, "[Clive Barker] is a mapmaker of the mind, charting the farthest reaches of the imagination.... " -- Washington Post "Barker has an unparalleled talent for envisioning other worlds." -- Maxine Hong Kingston, Washington Post Book World "A writer of stunning imagination." -- Atlanta Journal & Constitution "One of our most inventive and risk-taking writers." -- Kirkus Reviews "...in the language of fear, he has no equals." -- Time Out (London) "Barker possesses one of contemporary fictions' wildest and finest imaginations." -- Kirkus "Unfolds with genuine momentum, in the vigorous style of a fully engaged storyteller." -- Janet Maslin, New York Times "Wickedly enjoyable... endlessly entertaining...a powerhouse of a novel... irresistible." -- USA Today "Barker's vision is impressively bizarre--think Anne Rice meets Jacqueline Susann." -- People "When you're in the mood for forgettable escapism, nobody does it better." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer "Riveting." -- The Baltimore Sun
