With the 1984 publication of Books of Blood, Clive Barker became an overnight literary sensation. He was hailed by Stephen King as "the future of horror," and won both the British and World Fantasy Awards. Now, with his numerous bestsellers, graphic novels, and hit movies like the Hellraiser films, Clive Barker has become an industry unto himself. But it all started here, with this tour de force collection that rivals the dark masterpieces of Edgar Allan Poe. Read him. And rediscover the true meaning of fear.

Cabal is the story of Boone, a tortured soul haunted by the conviction that he has committed atrocious crimes. In a necropolis in the wilds of Canada, he seeks refuge and finds the last great creatures of the world - the shape-shifters known as the Nightbreed. They are possessed of unearthly powers-and so is Boone. In the hunt for Boone, they too will be hunted. Now only the courage of this strange human can save them from extinction. And only the undying passion of a woman can save Boone from his own corrupting hell...

They say, All good things to those who
wait." But for those impatient souls, we
offer Clive Barker's Hell...

Rush to get tickets to a tragedy directed
by the Cenobite, Face. Feel your pulse

herslf in the part. Whisk away a world
leader's ideals to find the capering face of
atrocity. And join an expedition into the
rank legions of the Devil's Brigade.

Well....what are you waiting for?

”Han hade begått ett misstag när han öppnade Lemarchands ask. Ett mycket förskräckligt misstag.”

Girighet och kärlek, kärlekslöshet och förtvivlan, åtrå och död, liv och fångenskap, krokar, kedjor och blod: Clive Barkers blodisande mästerverk om förbjuden åtrå och fruktansvärd återuppståndelse som låg till grund för filmen Hellraiser.

Frank Cottons omättliga aptit på smärtans mörka njutningar ledde honom till mysteriet med Lemarchands kub, och därifrån till en död som bara en störd själ kunde tänka ut. Men hans brors kärlekstörstande fru, Julia, har upptäckt ett sätt att återuppväcka Frank – men priset blir blodigt och fruktansvärt … och det kommer definitivt kosta så in i helvete.

The Books of Blood combine the ordinary with the extraordinary while radiating the eroticism that has become Barker's signature. Weaving tales of the everyday world transformed into an unrecognizable place, where reason no longer exists and logic ceases to explain the workings of the universe, Clive Barker provides the stuff of nightmares in packages too tantalizing to resist.

Never one to shy away from the unimaginable or the unspeakable, Clive Barker breathes life into our deepest, darkest nightmares, creating visions that are at once terrifying, tender, and witty.

The Books of Blood confirm what horror fans everywhere have known for a long time: We will be hearing from Clive Barker for many years to come. This first volume contains the short stories : "The Book of Blood," "The Midnight Meat Train," "The Yattering and Jack," "Sex, Death, and Starshine," and "In the Hills, the Cities."

Clive Barker has made his mark on modern fiction by exposing all that is surreal and magical in the ordinary world --- and exploring the profound and overwhelming terror that results. With its volatile mix of the fantastical and the contemporary, the everyday and the otherworldly, Weaveworld is an epic work of dark fantasy and horror -- a tour de force from one of today's most forceful and imaginative artists.

Barker turns from his usual horror to epic-length fantasy for this account of the Fugue, a magical land inhabited by descendants of supernatural beings who once shared the earth with humans. The Fugue has been woven into a carpet for protection against those who would destroy it; the death of its guardian occasions a battle between good and particularly repulsive evil forces for control of the Fugue. Weaveworld is rich with memorable characters, exciting situations, and pockets of Barker's trademark horror.

All he wants is to live as he was before. All Julia can do is bring him her unfulfilled passions… and a little flesh and blood…
