rpcroke 's review for:

The Thief of Always by Clive Barker
5.0

What a great little tale. I was expecting a darker fable but this seemed to be an ode to a hero's tale and more generally childhood. Some definite biblical allusions and maybe some to the Master and Margharita as well.

An absolute page-turner: This is very plot driven as opposed to character driven. It's my first Barker book so I am not sure if that is his style but it was a fun little adventure to go on him with. Highly recommended.
