Annotation: Clive Barker has made his mark on modern fiction by exposing all that is surreal and magical in the ordinary world --- and exploring the profound and overwhelming terror that results. With its volatile mix of the fantastical and the contemporary, the everyday and the otherworldly, "Weaveworld" is an epic work of dark fantasy and horror -- a tour de force from one of today's most forceful and imaginative artists.

Publisher Description:
A horrifying and spellbinding tale by the "great imaginer of our time" (Quentin Tarantino) and New York Times bestselling author Clive Barker about the magical world lying right beneath our feet.

In a home of an elderly woman in Liverpool lies a carpet.

Suzanna Parish is called to Liverpool after her grandmother has a stroke. Cal Mooney is on the run from an escaped homing pigeon. Together they find themselves accidently drawn into the strange world that lies beneath the mysterious rug. Here, a race of magical beings have hidden themselves from the normal world to escape human persecution and an evil known as the Scourge. But two other evils, a ruthless witch and her sidekick, seek the carpet for their own gain and will do whatever it takes to find it. As the intricate weavings of the tapestry come undone, Suzanna and Cal must face their biggest fears to save this discovered land and all its inhabitants.

Brutal, beautiful, brilliant, and full of his original illustrations, Clive Barker spins his best in this "unhinged and indulgent" (Entertainment Weekly) imaginative tale.
