![]() ![]() It seems too good to be true, but then Strauss finds out that the millionaire is being hunted by a lad who can resurrect the dead and bring peoples’ nightmares to life. The basic premise is that Marty Strauss, a prisoner gets let out of jail early so he can work as a security guard for a reclusive millionaire. I’m not entirely convinced the plot made a whole lot of sense, but the writing and characters were so intriguing that it works as a novel. ![]() While this novel is lengthy, it took me less than 4 days to finish. While some of Clive Barker’s books are extremely long, the ones I had read were fairly unpleasant affairs (in the best way possible), and I didn’t feel ready for 370 pages of Barker’s nightmares. I had been meaning to read The Damnation Game for years, but I kept putting it off. ![]() Putnam – 1987 (Originally published 1985) ![]()
