Advance uncorrected proof of Clive Barker’s Weaveworld, published by Poseidon Press in 1987.
Copyright page shows full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1, indicating first printing. Issued as a special advance reader’s copy, not for resale, preceding the trade hardcover publication.
Weaveworld marked a major evolution in Barker’s career, expanding beyond the visceral horror of his earlier work into an ambitious dark fantasy of myth, magic, and hidden worlds. The novel centers on a fugitive realm woven into a carpet—an enchanted refuge threatened by forces both human and supernatural. Combining graphic intensity with sweeping imaginative scope, the book established Barker as a significant voice in contemporary fantasy.\n\nThis example remains in Very Good plus condition, clean and well preserved in its original printed wrappers, with only light handling wear. Advance proofs of this title are considerably scarcer than the trade edition and remain desirable among collectors of modern horror and dark fantasy.
