![]() Things kick off with the tale of our ringmaster, the convicted killer Tom Requiem. “The Infernal Parade” was one of these toy lines, inspired by a nightmarish circus filled with monstrous attractions and other gruesome curiosities. Back in the early 2000s McFarlane Toys put out a couple lines of horror action figures which came distributed with portions of fictional pieces about them written by Barker as an added incentive. Thing is, out of context, the half dozen or so tales in here might seem a little random until you know a bit more about their history. For such a slim volume though, it held a surprising amount of fascination for me. Infernal Parade by Clive Barker is a novella containing a series of short stories which, including the illustrations (by Bob Eggleton), comes in at under 100 pages and probably took me less than an hour to read. Publisher: Subterranean Press (February 28, 2017) This does not affect the contents of my review and all opinions are my own. I received a review copy from the publisher. ![]() Novella Review: Infernal Parade by Clive Barker ![]()
