Has anyone read Galilee or The Great and Secret Show? I loved them both <3 Galilee was a romance, but there was so much else there Not all of the characters were interesting (Rachel miffed me) but I thought it was good for the most part. I've read The Great and Secret Show, but not Everville (yet). That too was pretty awesome, especially the last bit. His books always have such great endings.

Never read Great and Secret Show... it's never in my bookstore But I have read Galilee (it was actually the first Clive Barker book I ever read). I know a lot of people dislike it, saying it isn't really up to Clive's normal standards, but I really loved the book a lot. It was so sensual and haunting. And I sort of feel like it deserves a sequel. I agree with you about Rachel, I disliked her a lot, actually, but I loved the narrator and I loved Galilee.

Haha, I read Galilee when I was about... 11. Reread about a year ago. I adored Maddox x3 Definitely would have been more interesting if I could identify more with Rachel, but still great. There were so many smaller stories, all part of the whole. I especially liked Zelim.
