  Terry Brandt plays role-playing games, passing his time in the pursuit of imaginary contests with monsters and magic. Aging and depressed, he works a dead-end job, lives with his father, and enjoys a romantic life that could best be described as empty. 
    
  And for some reason, people are starting to die around Terry, killed in bizarre ways by seemingly otherworldly assailants that cannot be traced by the baffled police department. Whomever Terry holds a grudge against meets and unexplainable and brutal end, and the list of his deserving victims grows longer by the day. 
    
  As the murders continue, Dani Isaksson, a clever and committed detective, tries to contain the wicked string of horrific killings, getting ever closer to an apparent supernatural cause of the slayings. But as violence endangers everything surrounding her, Dani finds she will have to decided what price she is willing to pay to stop a lurking evil beyond anything she has ever known.

  “Think of a darker, more aggressive version of C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. . . . Filled with wicked mischief and dark dares.” — Kansas City Star 
  From Clive Barker, the great master of horror and the macabre, comes a brilliant and truly unsettling tour de force of the supernatural—a terrifying work that escorts the reader on an intimate and revelatory journey to uncover the shocking truth of the battle between Good and Evil. 
  “Burn this book!” 
  So warns Jakerbok, the spellbinding narrator of this fabulously original “memoir,” a tale of good and evil deliberately “lost” for nearly six hundred years. Jakerbok is no ordinary soul; he is a minion of hell with a terrifying plan to cast the world into darkness and despair—a plan thwarted by a young apprentice of Johannes Gutenberg who buried the one and only copy of this damnable manuscript that his master printed in 1438. 
  Compelling and direct, Jakerbok shares the secrets of his life, going back centuries to recall the events that shaped his childhood, including the traumas he suffered at the hands of his parents, super demons themselves. He explains how he rose from “minor” to “major” demon status, and gleefully reveals his nefarious plot to “invade” the minds and hearts of unwitting humans everywhere thanks to the ingenious Gutenberg and his invention. “Burn this book!” he advises throughout—a taunt, a warning, and a command that will actually unleash the evil with which he has hidden in every word and every page, infusing the very ink and paper upon which they are printed. 
  Inventive and irresistible, Mister B. Good reaffirms Clive Barker is one of our most brilliant and original voices, an artist with a keen insight into mysteries deep within the human heart.

  London Incognita chronicles a city caught in the cycle of perpetual decline and continuous renewal: the English capital, groaning under the weight of two-thousand years of history, as seen through the eyes of its desperate and troubled inhabitants. A malicious presence from the 1970s resurfaces in the fevered alleyways of the city; an amnesiac goddess offers brittle comfort to the spirits of murdered shop-girls; and an obscure and forgotten London writer holds the key to a thing known as the emperor worm. As bombs detonate and buildings burn down, the city's selfish inhabitants hunt the ghosts of friends, family and lovers to the urban limits of the metropolis, uncovering the dark secrets of London. Includes the Shirley Jackson Award shortlisted Judderman."An honest, scalpel-sharp and unafraid dissection of the collective British psyche." - NIALL GRIFFITHS
