I did not finish this book. it started off great but the sex scenes were too much and did not appear to be ceasing at all.**Mild Spoiler Warning** I'd read this book when it was first released and recently decided to give it a listen when I saw that the late, great Frank Muller had performed the audio edition. I had forgotten much of the story over the years and had always enjoyed Barker's writing.It was a bit of a letdown. Muller's reading was top-notch, of course, but it seems that my memory of the book was a bit biased based off of my general love for Barker. My love of him aside, the book just wasn't as good as
This is one book of Clive's that I read often. I always expect that it's going to get old in the re-telling and it never does. It's not my favorite of Mr. Barkers books, but it's obviously up on my top 4 or 5. Clive weaves magic, terror, erotica, beauty and insanity all together in a beautiful blending of words and images that always keeps me coming back for more. I highly recommend this book and author. His writing is a rarity, and I can't think of even one single author who's writings even
This book is absolutely wretched and I'm totally embarrassed that I read an almost 700 page book that is just plain bad. The book is billed as a 'Hollywood Ghost Story' and I was excited about its promise. It did not live up to its promise in any way. I have never read Clive Barker so I have no idea if this is typical for him or not - regardless, I can't imagine ever putting more time into reading him again. The book is disjointed and rambling - several times I thought it was finally ending but
First published back in 2001, Coldheart Canyon came three years after the publication of Barkers epic love story Galilee. With many fans of Barkers work expecting the sequel to Galilee to be following, or indeed the first instalment of the long awaited Abarat quartet to emerge, Coldheart Canynon was an interesting return to Barkers darker, more apocalyptic and dare I say more depraved side of his fiction.Written during a very difficult period of Barkers life, with the unfortunate and sad death
I have to say this book highly surprised me! When I saw this in the library I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was. After being so heart trodden with the scarlet gospels, This was amazing!The story started in Romania in the 1920s when a famous film starlot Katya Lupi returns to visit to return to her family with her talent agent Willem Zeffer. Zeffer visits an old medieval castle, which has been turned into a monastery and decides to buy a unique work of art, a series of sculpted and
Preposterous yet emblematic; never restrained, overly graphic, written handsomely... it's less a mess than previous novels surely, though undoubtedly nowhere near as great as his short stories are. ("The Forbidden", for me, reigns supreme in that category-- it may just be my favorite short story OF ALL time.)Yup, LA is rife with possibilities of the supernatural & evil forces colliding isnt too much of a stretch. The ironies, nay, the gruesome details, is what makes Barker such a supernova.
