Clive Barker
I just read a short of his called Infernal Parade. Loved it. Recommend. I feel it can be made into a full novel for you are kinda left hanging but he packs a lot of horror in just 88 pages. I am now addicted in reading more of his books.

I love his Books of Blood anthologies. He's a poetic, unique writer.

He's always been hit or miss with me. I was a big fan of The Great and Secret Show, but Imajica wore me out. Enjoyed Galilee a lot, but Sacrament bored me.

I’m a big fan of Barker. I’ve enjoyed everything he’s written. The Books of Blood are highly recommended if you want more short story horror. Also check out Cabal. It’s $3.99 on amazon right now, I believe.

I've read four or five of his books over a period of four months when at university one year. I remember I really liked them and have always wanted to read his other books, but I never did somehow. I think I will now, thank you for reminding me of this author.
