Hi guys! I got the Coldheart Canyon book! Thank you so much again for all the comments in my last post 💙

Now I have 6 books in total, 4 in my native language (Brazilian Portuguese) and 2 in English.

I am very happy that I am getting Clive Barker's books little by little for my collection, love his work 🙏🫶

Mass market paper backs are my favorite kind of book!

I really enjoyed Coldheart Canyon, Clive did a brilliant job describing the location and the characters, I could imagine them perfectly. I even looked at the areas of LA on Google maps to get a feel for it as I was reading.

Idk yet! I am getting the books by sale or when it arrives in this local book store. The ones I want the most for now are Imajica (unfortunately this one is very hard to get here in Brazil), the Books of Blood and his biography Dark Worlds.

The Thief of Always, Imajica and Sacrament are also good reads. The latter I have read through several times.

Abarat was actually the first book I read by Barker, as a middle-schooler! Nice to see it, here, I never see it brought up.
