“The Thief of Always” details the adventures of Harvey Swick, when he occupies Mr. Hood’s Holiday House. The house is 1,000 years old and welcomes children, from throughout the century of existence. For those who choose to enter—wonders, luxuries and notions come to realization. However, there is a price with consequences. When the darkness of the structure enters the light and the creatures appear, Swick must defend himself. Unlike anyone before Swick, Mr. Hood and the Holiday House have yet to face off against anyone like Swick.

The other books of the genre he has penned were: “The Adventures of Maximillian Bacchus and His Travelling Circus”, “Abarat”, “Abarat: Days of Magic, Nights of War” and “Abarat: Absolute Midnight”. As an author, many of his books were New York Times Best Sellers.
As a mixed media artist, Barker’s works could be seen in an array of formats including: film (“Hellraiser”, “Candyman”, “Nightbreed: The Director’s Cut”, “Lord of Illusions”), video games (“Undying”, “Jericho”), books (“Mister B. Gone”, “Books of Blood”) and action figures (“Tortured Souls” and “Infernal Parade” with Todd McFarlane) and more.
