Publisher's summary

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.

Ah, but what price Wonderland?

One of my favorites! Raw and dark fantasy from Clive Barker. A great story and wonderful narration by Mr. Simon Vance. Maybe not as polished as some of Barker's other works, but a grand modern fairytale nonetheless. Epic in scale and weight.

Weaveworld

Clive Barker at his best.
Owning both hard copy, ebook, and audio of Weaveworld.
I must admit to getting totally lost in the audiobook.

Beautiful story to get lost in

Clive Barker's blend of the normal, fantastic, and horrific are on show here. The story is a great escape yet leaves you grounded. This paradox is found through out the book. Simon Vance does a great job separating the characters personality and voices so I never was confused on who was who. Highly recommend.

Captivating and completely satisfying

I was absolutely entranced by this story. The narration was excellent. The characters were likable and fully developed. And the writing was so beautiful and poetic that I often found myself rewinding just to listen to a passage again.
