This is the 1988 Fontana (UK) paperback edition of “Weaveworld” that I read. Needless to say, this review will contain some SPOILERS. So, yes, this review has been a long time coming.Īnyway, let’s take a look at “Weaveworld”. It became one book amongst the piles of books. I’d probably meant to read it at the time, but I held back because I’d heard that it wasn’t a horror novel ( unlike the other Barker novels I’d read). This was a book I’d found in a charity shop or a second-hand shop during my late teens/early twenties. Then, a week or two before I wrote this review, I found my old copy of Barker’s 1987 dark fantasy novel “Weaveworld”. Sure, I’d thought about re-reading “Cabal” a few times but, since I’ve already read it twice, I felt like reading something else instead. Then, when I got back into reading regularly a few months ago, it took me something like fifty-four books before I finally read another Clive Barker novel.
I moved on to other books for a couple of years, but that was the last Clive Barker novel I read for quite a while. It has been way too long since I last read a Clive Barker novel! I think that the last time was in late 2010/early 2011 when I started reading the third “Abarat” novel one evening, only to leave it half-finished because I couldn’t bear the idea of the story ending.
