Clive is a fantastic author so I think that he needs his own thread.
I've read ABARAT 1&2 and the Damination Game. I love the ABARAT-books but I think that the Damination Game is crappy.
I'm trying to find other of his books, especially The Hellbound Heart.

Seen Damnation Game around...dunno if I'll get it or not.
Own Hellbound Heart though....aka; the novel form of Hellraiser.

Is Hellbound Heart good? It's kinda hard to find Clive's books in Sweden, but I'm doing my best.

The Hellbound Heart was really good, I was just disappointed it wasn't longer. I wanted to read more. Right now I'm working on The Great and Secret Show. Really good so far, and a lot more challenging, which is good.

Ok… I'm dying to read it but very few of his books are translated to Swedish and it's impossible to find them in English here too.

I had had the luxury of mr barkers work , a little before i believe , i enjoyed the hell raiser productions, as mentioned above the hell bound heart seems initially short and almost bordering on incomplete, a sequel would almost be in need of demand.
Yet on reflection, it is ,in many respects the real intricate beauty of the work . For me at least, once read( it was at the start of a moist and uncomfortable summer) i spent many nights at length with my own continuations of the work. A piece of work that places imagination and continuation in the hands of the reader had insight by the author...after all how else can you be truly scared? If you have interest in other works, i enjoyed cable (night breed)and the notions within made me smile a little and the comic representation made me laugh out load at times, though it became week and pointless.
