The Great and Secret Show: The First Book of the Art
Nightcrawler avatar reviewed on + 207 more book reviews


As many stories, this one is about good and evil. More specifically, it is about what good and evil feel they must do to reach their own ends, and the outward ripple of events that their decision causes upon the world. It's a story about love, another predominant theme, and, like with good and evil, one that is utilized into a "Romeo and Juliet"-esque situation between those on the side of good and those on the side of evil. It's an old story,but in Barker's penmanship and style, one that you've never read before.
