It's not big and it's not clever!!! The premise of a minor demon be trapped inside a book and pleading with the reader to burn the book was funny for the first couple of pages, but then got very boring indeed. Some of it is interesting and well thought out, but there is so much chaff, that it is hard to see the wheat.
Product Description
Mister B. Gone marks the long-awaited return of Clive Barker, the great master of the macabre, to the classic horror story. This bone-chilling novel, in which a medieval devil speaks directly to his reader—his tone murderous one moment, seductive the next—is a never-before-published memoir allegedly penned in the year 1438. The demon has embedded himself in the very words of this tale of terror, turning the book itself into a dangerous object, laced with menace only too ready to break free and exert its power.
A brilliant and truly unsettling tour de force of the supernatural, Mister B. Gone escorts the reader on an intimate and revelatory journey to uncover the shocking truth of the battle between Good and Evil.
