Imajica by Clive Barker (1991, Hardcover)

Clive Barker in a interview said of Imajica "This book guides the reader through the interrelated levels of reality. It's a map to the HELLRAISER mythos"
After I read Imajica for the third time, I realized how that in the first time around its might be easy to become confused or at least miss the greater point of the story. Many who read and liked Barker's early horror work might find this book a bit to weird.

You are dropped into a stew of strange characters, and scapes. it begins with the main protagonists, strange beings that haunt the streets of London. The book is full of characters, and seperate quests will take them into strange lands, traveling the four dominions connected,that are broken from the fifth. The earth being the fifth Dominion.

The Imajica, the five dominions.

It doesn't make for easy reading, it can be hard to stay with all the goings on. Its easy to become distracted trying to follow the main plot and miss what the book is actually about. Barker clearly sides with chaos against conformity. This is a story about diversity. More then mere fantasy, it mirrors reality.

Clive Barkers Imajica is an epic tale that transcends genre.
It is truly brilliant.
