Nicholas, a would-be poet, and Nakota, his feral lover, discover a strange hole in the storage room floor down the hall - "Black. Pure black and the sense of pulsation, especially when you look at it too closely, the sense of something not living but alive." It begins with curiosity, a joke - the Funhole down the hall. But then the experiments begin. "Wouldn't it be wild to go down there?" says Nakota. Nicholas says "We're not." But they're not in control, not from the first moment, as those experiments lead to obsession, violence, and a very final transformation.

Bloody good
What made the experience of listening to The Books of Blood: Volume 3 the most enjoyable?
That it is a collection of short stories. Can be delved in and out of at leisure, though you might be tempted to listen to it all first time...
Any additional comments?
Barker's bloody imagination bets better and bolder. There are some excellent tales in volume three, nasty and vivid, and the body count is growing. Stories to look out for include Rawhead Rex, Confessions of a (Pornographer's) Shroud, and Scape Goats.
