Blurb:
In volume IV of Clive Barker’s Books Of Blood, five more marrow-curdling excursions beyond the pale:
THE BODY POLITIC
What happens when we lose control of our own hands? Murder, murder and more murder.
THE INHUMAN CONDITION
The knots were tied by a master, to bind monsters. Not that Karney knew that when he started to untie them …
REVELATIONS
Twenty-five years ago the Motel became known as The Slaughterhouse of Love. Tonight’s guests are about to find out why.
DOWN, SATAN!
Gregorius spent his fortune building a Hell on Earth. But every Hell needs its Fallen Angel …
THE AGE OF DESIRE
The aphrodisiac worked beyond its makers’ wildest dreams. Now their guinea-pig’s in heat… and Death is just another one night stand.
Sordid Spheres! 
Will E. said
Just reread Volume IV for the first time in over 20 years… and the stories hold up great! Barker’s writing really started to mature in the second half of B of B.
