It's too bad that some of his better books weren't made into movies

I liked Coldheart Canyon and just read Books of Blood, I thought it was great! Hellbound Heart was my first by him and I think its a good intro to Clive.

I loved 'Coldheart Canyon', but my favourite will always be 'Weaveworld'

What a story!

He genuinly disturbed me a few times. Great recommendation guys thx.
Clive barker does own though

My that IS impressive...And yes, I have read it.....Colossus...Frankenstein in Love...The History of The Devil (more like "Dark Humor", with the Devil on trial), this one was excellent...The first two were a bit lacking
