5.0 out of 5 stars An actually frightening one, June 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Inhuman Condition: Tales of Terror (Hardcover)

This collection of short weird stories is one of my favorite books. It is the first Clive Barker's book I read and since then I am a Clive Barker fan. All the stories have a witty plot, which catches you by the neck and doesn`t release you until you read the very last word. The atmosphere created in each of the stories is so mysterious, like a living nightmare. The characters are excellently psychologically depicted. It is really addicting, I couldn`t stop reading, - so, if you are having your exams, I don`t recommend it to you! But if you have read other books by the same author and have liked them, or if you simply like horror stories, you shouldn't let this go.
