Clive Barker is one of my favorite writers. The Damnation Game was his first novel. It was published in 1985. It is a book that I found hard to put down. He has written some of the most frightening passages that I have ever read, in this book and other stories and novels. He is expert at combining the erotic with the horrifying. He is good at creating characters who are very likable as well as characters who are completely repulsive. There are characters who are a combination of the two. I am often surprised by plot developments. Fortunately there are still books that he has written that I have not read. I think that I would enjoy meeting him in person.
