“Everybody is a book of blood; wherever we’re opened, we’re red.” For those who only know Clive Barker through his long multigenre novels, this one-volume edition of the Books of Blood is a welcome chance to acquire the 16 remarkable horror short stories with which he kicked off his career. These enthusiastic tales are not ashamed of visceral horror, of blood splashing freely across the page: “The Midnight Meat Train,” a grisly subway tale that surprises you with one twist after another; “The Yattering and Jack,” about a hilarious demon who possesses a Christmas turkey; “In the Hills, the Cities,” an unusual example of an original horror premise; “Dread,” a harrowing non-supernatural tale about being forced to realize your worst nightmare; “Jacqueline Ess: Her Will and Testament,” about a woman who kills men with her mind. Some of the tales are more successful than others, but all are distinguished by strikingly beautiful images of evil and destruction. No horror library is complete without them.
