      Clive Barker

      So, essentially, since I was about ten, I've been reading and re-reading some of the work or Clive Barker. I've always been infatuated with his work..It's so weird...The characters are awesome, being mostly just disgustingly and morbidly compelling. I mean, even the children's book, "The Thief of Always" is eerily beautiful. The book, "The Damnation Game" is the only book that has ever made me physically ill enough to throw up. The fact that books can alter one's physical and emotional state, as his books have mine, is truly amazing. Does anyone else enjoy the work of Clive Barker?

      Absolutely! Weaveworld is one of my all time favorites.
      What a long, strange trip it's been.

      That book is wonderful. I don't think I've read a more original work. It was an awesome one to read.

      OMG I love Clive Barker. I have all of his books in paper back, most of them in hard back and some with both American and British Cover Artwork!

      Imajica is a work of art The Great and Secret Show and Everville should be made into a "Supernatural" style series (I love that show) and Clives descriptions of OOBing got me into lucid dreaming in the first place.

      Amazing.

      Oh how I do gush at his genius.

      Best thing is he never uses the "...He woke up and it was all a dream." copout ending.

      Clive Barker Rules

      I read all of his stuff in high school [graduated in 89]

      I think the Great and Secret Show was the last one I got to
