Hmmm, Weaveworld is £3.99 for Kindle ...

 

I saw that as well... surprised you haven't read it already Karsa

I am actually quite ashamed

[Timstar]

Saw The Great and Secret Show in a charity shop and couldn't resist

[gidgmon]

Huge fan of his. I love The Great and Secret Show, but loved Everville even more. Wasn't there supposed to be a third book?

[Timstar]

Don't know if there will be a third but I believe there is only two at the moment.

It's sometimes hard to pigeon hole Barkers writing style, so much is fantasy, dark fantasy and horror.

 

If you are a horror fan, the "books of blood" are a must, a collection of truly spine chilling short stories.

Fantasy, as has been already said - Weaveworld - absolutely awesome.

Dark Fantasy - The Great and Secret Show is a real epic of this genre

 

All his books are somewhat dark, but one of my favorites has to be "the thief of always" as a great introduction to Barker as it's pretty short compared with many of his others and as the "Great Grey Beast of February" is upon us a very seasonal read.

 

I am a huge horror fan so will give the 'books of blood' a go but don't really fancy the fantasy side of his, that's not really my bag.
