Thanks! I haven't read Graham Joyce - but I will add his name to my ever increasing list of things to read!

But Koontz and I never did get along.

I also got into Barker books when I was in my teens.. I blame Cabal for being interesting - one of the few books I'll happily read repeatedly. I remember enjoying the books of blood around the same time.. then I drifted off, only to rediscover him with Imajica. I do like his style though, so I think he'll always be a favourite.

Gaiman rawks, I finished Fragile Things* on Tuesday :)

Oddly enough I've only recently discovered the joys of Stephen King in book form. For some reason- probably that so many films have been made of his work- I'd managed to avoid reading any of it. Then I grabbed the dark tower series specifically because it wasn't horror, and I was intrigued.. and it grabbed me.. the rest, as they say, is history. Having read the unabridged version of The Stand shortly thereafter, I can safely say I plan to read a lot more King, after a short rest ;)

[* anyone reading that doesn't know Gaiman, start there IMHO. It's a bunch of short stories and is a bit less marmite (love it/hate it) than American Gods or some of his other work.. but if you do like it, then try American Gods, and you'll love it .. honest .. no really. ]

i dont really do horror, but i really liked American Gods, and the other one with Fat Charlie. i could really do with reading some good fiction at the mo, i have been reading loads of non fiction.
