bookbearreads 's review for:

The Thief of Always by Clive Barker
4.5
adventurous dark emotional mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I was surprised that this was a Barker novel. It is definitely lighter than his typical work, but still had a great amount of tension and horror. It has some really good themes to fall on and makes you think about time. It was a little slow at first but then really picked up.
