    It's Barker
  

*by K***B on Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2013*

Believe it or not, I would consider In The Flesh (which is volume five of the books of blood) to actually be the weakest of all six volumes. This doesn't speak to the stories being bad, but rather to the strength of the other volumes. It's pretty clear after the first three horrific volumes, Barker started going more into the dark fantasy. While I loved the gut-wrenching horror of the earlier volumes, Barker's dark fantasy is still done masterfully.To be completely honest, my rating of four stars is probably due to the fact that I've read enough of Clive Barker that his impressive imagination isn't quite as amazing to me as it used to be (though it's still powerful). I felt for the first time that Barker's stories were a tiny bit formulaic, meaning that wierd and bizzare things are going to happen in the story, it's just a matter of how you get there that is different (such as a jail cell, abandoned buildings, and a woman driving down an unknown road).Here's a quick breakdown of the stories:In The Flesh: One of the stories I felt was slightly formulaic, where a man in jail gets a new cellmate who's grandfather was hung at the same prison many years before. Slightly predictable, didn't have the same bang to it that some of Barker's other stories. I did like the setting however.The Forbidden: Good story, and I liked it because it offered a bit of variety, whereas there wasn't too much dark fantasy, more like a straight up thriller for the most part. My second favorite story.The Madonna: Another good story, typical Barker, but well fleshed-out and written very well. My personal favorite storyBabel's Children: Very interesting story, even for Barker's imagination. The concept is quite good, and there's a heavy dose of mystery in this story up to a point. Not quite amazing, but a nice finish to the books of blood for me.If you've read and enjoyed other volumes of The Books of Blood, then you'll know what to expect with In The Flesh. Even when his stories aren't at full strength, they are still pretty potent.

    Author, great - publisher, not great
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2022*

This is a review of the publisher, not the author. Clive Barker is an excellent writer and I love reading him.  This edition has many spelling and syntax errors, possibly grammar ones, too.  Please proofread your publications  in the future.
