“The most provocative tales of terror ever published.”—The Washington Post
Everybody is a book of blood; wherever we're opened, we're red...
With the publication of Books of Blood, Clive Barker became an overnight literary sensation. His tour de force collection of brilliantly disturbing tales demonstrated a genius for dark invention that rivaled Poe and Sade. He was hailed by Stephen King as “the future of horror,” and won both the British and World Fantasy Awards.
Now, with his numerous bestsellers, graphic novels, and hit movies like the Hellraiser films, Clive Barker has become an industry unto himself. It is his powerful writing style and arresting imagery that have made Books of Blood a classic—and Clive Barker a cult phenomenon.

This is a collection of short stories and they are amazingly written. Midnight Meat Train is in this collection of stories and although it is a bit different than the movie, it is just one of the amazing finds that you will find in this book. Every story, has something interesting going on. When I first read this, I could not put it down. I loved every story. These are not fairy tales but horror stories that keep you guessing and wanting more.
