Suvudu Universe

A nasty cold for my wife any myself, a health scare with my dad, and way too much shoveling of snow to avoid a flood meant a quiet week in the ruins:

• SF Review: The A.I. Chronicles edited by Ellen Campbell
• Fantasy Review: The Skull Throne by Peter V. Brett
• Waiting on Wednesday: The Dragon Engine by Andy Remic
• Mark Lawrence's Self-Published Challenge - Update 1

Coming up this week, we'll be hosting October Weeks and Rowena Cory Daniels in the Ruins!

• The Hellbound Heart by Clive Barker
It all begins here, with the novella that introduced the world to Frank and Julia, the Lemarchand puzzle box, and the Cenobites. Later adapted, of course, as Hellraiser with Doug Bradley in iconic role of Pinhead.

• "The Last Illusion" by Clive Barker
It continues here, in this selection from the final Books of Blood collection, with a story that introduced the world to occult detective Harry D'Amour. Later adapted as Lord of Illusions, starring Scott Bakula in the role of Harry.

• The Scarlet Gospels by Clive Barker
It all ends here, with the final confrontation between Pinhead and Harry, in a novel that promises to be an epic, visionary tale of good versus evil, set in Barker's erotically charged version of Hell.
