Still Fascinated By Clive Barker's Weaveworld

Date of Review:  Aug 5, 2002
The Bottom Line: Heard of Clive Barker? You know...the Hellraiser bloke...if so, you need to check out Weaveworld.
Review: If I were cornered and forced to choose my favorite horror-fantasy novel of all time, my choice would be simple. Weaveworld by admitted splatterpunk godfather Clive Barker is an exercise in weirdness and the extraordinary. It?s not a novel for...

Barker is a Master Weaver

Date of Review:  Mar 4, 2000
Review: Weaveworld held me in its grasp for a couple of weeks. On the Metro, before I went to bed, even when I could sneak out of work for a couple of minutes, this book came with me.

This is my first Clive Barker book, although I've seen a couple...

Fails To Weave A Fiber of Coherency

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 2009
The Bottom Line: For being so well known and loved by so many, I was really disappointed. It's just an overhyped bore.
Review: Weaveworld is the third book by Clive Barker that I've read and while I didn't like Galilee, his romantically poor "odyssey", I thought that I'd kick back with his most beloved book amongst fans.

This books centers on Suzanna and Calhoun...

Weaveworld, A Master's Worldbuilding

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: Weaveworld is hypnotic, surreal and entrancing, suspension of disbelief sets up for great terrors.
Review: Weaveworld is a lyrical epic by shock writer Clive Barker. It has its nightmare elements and unlike many writers, Barker doesn't shy away from the surreal. His fantastic imagery light and dark is often far too original not to really startle with its...

What Fantasy Should Be

Date of Review:  Feb 22, 2007
The Bottom Line: Any reader of fantasy worth his salt must give Barker his due, especially this book.
Review: Have you ever read a typical fantasy novel and wondered how these characters would react to being in the 21st century? Have you ever dreamed of an updated fairy tale that would show how real people performed under threat of death from monsters so...

Need A Rug?

Date of Review:  Dec 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: Compelling story, great characters, you just can't stop reading it!
Review: I read Clive Barker?s "Weaveworld" for the first time when I was fifteen, and I kept coming back to it. It was my first Clive Barker book, and I fell in love with the guy. I had read most of his books and I loved them, but "Weaveworld" remained my...

This imaginative story works as either fantasy or horror. (Updated 7/1/01)

Date of Review:  May 6, 2001
The Bottom Line: A must read for anyone who enjoys reading horror, fantasy, or just great books.
Review: "Weaveworld" is a tapestry woven of many characters and places. Its primary idea of a rug containing the entranceway to a magical land reminded me a little of "The Lion Witch and the Wardrobe", but it quickly transcends that children's fantasy tale...

This is my favourite book.

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2000
Review: This is my favourite Clive Barker book to date though I have not read all his works.
I loved the storyline and Barker is in a class of his own with his descriptive writing. Compared to Imajica it's a simpler tale in it's telling. Compared to...

Not your ordinary carpet.

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: Wonderful storyline, strong character development, solid storytelling.
Review: This is probably one of the most imaginative and vividly written books I have read in my time. Clive Barker once again has done a beautiful job of creating a unique world that is a delight to travel through.

A world has been woven into a...
