to Gorgossium at Midnight, plus the mystical Twenty-Fifth Hour. This is part Review, part Recommendation because I’ve just finished the third book in the Abarat series by Clive Barker, Absolute Midnight, and since I can’t really review it as a stand-alone book I am going to recommend to you the whole series because it is genuinely one of the most beautiful and fantastical things you will ever have the pleasure of reading.Ībarat is a promised five-part series for young adults (don’t let that put you off, Clive Barker’s idea of ‘young adult’ fiction isn’t quite the same as other people’s) which explores the archipelago of Abarat – 25 islands, each of them representing one hour of the day, from The Pyramids of Xuxux at 1 a.m.
