A good read. Not as terrifying as I'd hoped for but chilling in a few spots intermingled with a few pockets of humour. I preferred much of the book set on earth rather than that set in hell. I enjoyed the setup of Mister B. talking from the book and the constant requests to burn the book. I also enjoyed the involvement of Gutenberg in the plot. Given many reviewers indicated this was not one of Barker's best books I think I will look to read some of his other horror books.
