About this ebook

A fabulous journey through the mind of the master of dark imaginative fiction, Clive Barker.

The nightmare had begun....

Boone knew that there was no place on this earth for him now; no happiness here, not even with Lori. He would let Hell claim him, let Death take him there.

But Death itself seemed to shrink from Boone. No wonder, if he had indeed been the monster who had shattered, violated and shredded so many others’ lives.

And Decker had shown him the proof – the hellish photographs where the last victims were forever stilled, splayed in the last obscene moment of their torture.

Boone’s only refuge now was Midian – that awful, legendary place in which gathered the half-dead, the Nightbreed...

One of the best, more melancholy-driven works by Clive Barker, and quite possibly my favorite books among his vast body of work. Simple in its premise, beautiful in its metaphors snd powerful in its images, this will resound with every reader who has longed for a place to truly call home and where they are accepted for who they truly are. Highly recommended.

Being only 11 when I first read this book, I skipped the sex scene, but it is my favourite book ever (lol-a bit hard to explain to my english teacher though). I would recomend this book to people who enjoy reading thrillers or any Clive Barker fans. :D

I have been wanting to read this book for years. I finally did it and I did not enjoy that. I was probably 20 years too late to this kind of stories and the type of narrative but I recognised that the potential of this book is great and that's was made it so popular.
