That guy doesn't look scary at all. What is the concept of the story? Has anyone read the book?

No idea what it is...
Only thing related to clive barker I've tried, is Undying, which was pretty nifty.

that was the argument for making this thread.
As for Jericho, there are some previews around the web and a press release at gamespot, so if you want Pooper you can check em out.

Clive Barker suffers from Stephen King syndrome: he peaked out 20 years ago and his best stuff was short stories, which are exceptional (Books of Blood). That being said he's way overqualified to be a writer in the gaming industry. Undying wasn't half bad as a haunted house type FPS.
