Joe and Bryan return to unpack Clive Barker's first full-length novel, 1985's The Damnation Game. It's a big, ambitious project, filled with trademark Barker-isms, as well as many typical first novel issues. C/W: *everything*

Plus: multiple endings, shallow female characters, animal violence, and a challenging redemption arc for a cannibal pedophile.

Finally: an important announcement for episode 30!
