Everville
Clive Barker
Five years ago, in his bestseller The Great and Secret Show, Clive Barker mesmerised millions of readers worldwide with an extraordinary vision of human passions and possibilities. Welcome to a new volume in that epic adventure. Welcome to Everville.
On a mountain peak, high above the city of Everville, a door stands open: a door that opens onto the shores of the dream-sea Quiddity. And there’s not a soul below who’ll not be changed by that fact…
Phoebe Cobb is about to forget her old life and go looking for her lost lover Joe Flicker in the world on the other side of that door; a strange, sensual wonderland the likes of which only Barker could make real.
Tesla Bombeck who knows what horrors lurk on the far side of Quiddity, must solve the mysteries of the city’s past if she is to keep those horrors from crossing the threshold.
Harry D’Amour, who has tracked the ultimate evil across America, will find it conjuring atrocities in the sunlit streets of Everville.
Step into Everville’s streets, and enter a world like no other…
‘Clive Barker is so good I am almost tongue-tied. What Barker does makes the rest of us look like we’ve been asleep for the last ten years … His stories are compulsorily readable and original. He is an important, exciting and enormously saleable writer.’
