His acumen as a horror writer has been praised as some of the most influential to pop culture in recent times. Stephen King hailed Barker as "the future of horror." His Books of Blood series and his novella The Hellbound Heart which inspired the Hellraiser movies have amassed a global cult following and cemented their place in pop culture history. The Scarlet Gospels marks Barkers return to horror fiction. Review "I think Clive Barker is so good that I am literally tongue-tied. He makes the rest of us look like weve been asleep for the past ten years." --Stephen King "A powerful and fascinating writer with a brilliant imagination... an outstanding storyteller" --JG Ballard "To call Clive Barker a horror novelist would be like calling the Beatles a garage band... He is the great imaginer of our time. He knows not only our greatest fears, but also what delights us, what turns us on, and what is truly holy in the world. Haunting, bizarre, beautiful." --Quentin Tarantino Review Quote [ The Scarlet Gospels ] offers the pleasures of a tightly compressed epic. Its visionary scenario and detailed account of apocalyptic events are as grand and sweeping as anything the earlier books had to offer... The Scarlet Gospels assumes a prominent place in [Barkers] evolving catalog of mythic imaginings. - The Washington Post "In Barkers work, beauty and evil are an old married couple, living together comfortably, even serenely, with no secrets left from one another... a fine premise for a horror epic: a kind of blasphemous version of "Paradise Lost," otherworldly history repeating itself as gory farce. Barker tears into it hungrily." - The New York Times Details ISBN1250056179 Author Clive Barker Short Title SCARLET GOSPELS Pages 368 Publisher St. Martins Griffin Language English ISBN-10 1250056179 ISBN-13 9781250056177 Media Book Format Paperback Residence Los Angeles, CA, US Birth 1952 Year 2016 Publication Date 2016-05-17 UK Release Date 2016-05-17 Imprint St. Martins Griffin DEWEY 823.914 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
