This book is a must for any Clive Barker fan.
Printed in Japanese on top quality acid free paper, and featuring all of the art from the UK and US edition, this book would be a real talking point in your collection. It reads from the back towards the front, so the signed bookplate appears four or five pages in from what is conventionally the rear. The dustjacket is an opaque red plastic with a gold promotional wrap-around band, to which we have added a cellophane wrap for added protection. The cover art is in the form of pictorial boards, which shows through the dustcover. An orange head and tail band and red satin bookmarker have been added to the binding, with beautiful patterned endpapers to complete the package.

And why is Candy beginning to feel that the world of the Abarat is familiar to her? Why can she speak words of magic she doesn't even remember learning? There is a mystery here.

Now Candy's companions must race against time to save her from the clutches of Carrion, and she must solve the mystery of her past before the forces of Night and Day clash and Absolute Midnight descends upon the islands. A final war is about to begin. And Candy is going to need to make some choices that will change her life forever...
