A book of revelations. A seamless tapestry of erotic passion,thwarted ambition and mythic horror. Clive Barker takes us on a voyage to worlds beyond our knowledge,but within our grasp.
John Furie Zacharias,known as Gentle,a master forger whose life is a series of lies. Judith Odell,a beautiful woman desired by three powerful men,but belonging to none of them. Pie'oh'pah,a mysterious assassin who deals in love as well as death. These three are united in a desperate search for the heart of a universal mystery,and will find the truth that lies in a place as mysterious as the face of God,and as secret as the human soul. They discover the Imajica.
Imajica is many things: an epic novel of vast panoramas and intimate,obsessive passions,embracing ghosts and reflections as well as the human and the divine.
