A review by shadowhelm
The Scarlet Gospels by Clive Barker

3.0

I don't do well with rating books. Either I like it or I don't like it and occasionally I love it. I suppose a 3 star system would work better for me. In this case I am in the like it category. I didn't hate it but it failed to be the book I had hoped it would be. I think it will only appeal to fans of The Hellbound Heart and the "Hellraiser" mythologies although it is written as a mostly stand alone novel and knowledge of the characters is not necessary. It is certainly not the book I would recommend to someone not already familiar with Clive Barker.
