Clive Barker- writer, artist, filmmaker. Weaver of fantastic worlds woven with textures so grand, real existence is belittled. He is a tour guide for lost souls hungry for adventure.

Known to most for his film Hellraiser which began the series, Mr. Barker's greatest skill- in this Web site creator's opinion- is writing.

With beginnings in theater, which begat his two books of plays, through his short stories (the fabled Books Of Blood), he carefully developed his craft.

His first novel, The Damnation Game was a critical success, and he has since released eight more novels including Galilee, and recently Coldheart Canyon.
