About this listen

Imajica is an epic beyond compare: vast in conception, obsessively detailed in execution, and apocalyptic in its resolution. At its heart lies the sensualist and master art forger Gentle, whose life unravels when he encounters Judith Odell, whose power to influence the destinies of men is vaster than she knows, and Pie "oh" pah, an alien assassin who comes from a hidden dimension.

That dimension is one of five in the great system called Imajica. They are worlds that are utterly unlike our own but are ruled, peopled, and haunted by species whose lives are intricately connected with ours. As Gentle, Judith, and Pie "oh" pah travel the Imajica, they uncover a trail of crimes and intimate betrayals, leading them to a revelation so startling that it changes reality forever.

Wonderful story and exceptional performance

As always, Clive Barker is a joy. Simon Vance is a wonderful discovery! He was born to perform audio books. What an exceptional experience listening to him read one of my favourite books. Thank you! Beautifully done, Simon.

It swept me away like very few books can and I just could not put it down. A stunning, intricate and sustained flight of imagination, exquisitely written. It inspired and shook me. This is my first Clive Barker and I'm utterly converted.

Amazing!

Simon Vance does a spectacular job of taking on the epic that is Imagica and giving every character a life of its own. Clive Barker's masterpiece left me in awe and I'm saddened to have finally finished the immersive rollercoaster. Absolutely amazing.

Sublime pinnacle of imagination.

I have read all Clive Barkers books over my life. In fact his storytelling is an accompaniment to it. His imagination is unique both in scope and detail. Imagica is the first book I read of his. I was instantly addicted to his visionary mind. I think it comes down to his understanding of the human condition and his ability to craft every sentence with brilliant detail explaining it. Awesome. Consuming and unforgettable.

a master world crafter

Such a beautiful and immersive world. Despite it being almost a whole day long, it seemed over so quickly. An incredible story

Simon Vance is also quickly becoming my favourite narrator. He's got one of those rich voices perfect for storytelling and his efforts at giving characters unique voices is both sucessul and highly enjoyable.

Barker and Vance make for a perfect combo.

Barker's best

What a ride. I struggle to stay interested in books and somehow, I easily lasted all 37 hours of this masterpiece. In my opinion, this is the pinnacle of writing and the best thing I've ever read. The performance by Simon Vance is brilliant as well
