About this title

Review:

‘Moves with tidal force and power’
- William S Burroughs

‘The tears of blood and nightmare imagery are passionate and ingenious... Imajica is a ride with remarkable views’
- Times Literary Supplement

- Mail on Sunday

‘A powerful and fascinating writer with a brilliant imagination... Clive Barker is an outstanding storyteller’
- J G Ballard

From the Back Cover:

A BOOK OF REVELATIONS. AN EPIC JOURNEY.

The imajica – five dominions, four reconciled. The fifth is Earth, cut off, living ignorant on the edge of a sea of possibilities, mystery and magic. Only a few know of the Imajica, and of the coming day when the Earth will be reunited with the other Dominions. And they are both terrified and in awe of the prospect.

The moment of reconciliation is now approaching. For Gentle, Judith and Pie’oh’pah it is a time of reckoning and revelation. They are driven to travel the path towards the City of the Unbeheld. It is their destiny, whatever horrors or wonders that may hold.

“He is a mapmaker of the mind, charting the farthest reaches of the imagination.”
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

'”Imajica' is a ride with remarkable views”
TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT

“Even greater in size and scope than 'Weaveworld'...erotic, apocalyptic, often horrifying, 'Imajica,' is beautifully written, a marvellous feat of imagination.”
CITY LIMITS

“A powerful and fascinating writer with a brilliant imagination...Clive Barker is an outstanding storyteller”
J G BALLARD
