Review: This book is not just for young adults, I truly enjoyed it. I didnt want to put it down. I lent it to a friend to read and never got it back and I miss it cause its a book I would read over again. It didnt take me long to finish it. So if you have not read it, I reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys horror/suspense books.

Summary: Great Imagination!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: A completely original, and fasinating book. While some classify it as merely a children's story, this book has no age limits!!! I have read it twice, and have enjoyed it as much as I have enjoyed so-called adult books like the Exorcist and The Shining. One of my all time favorite books.

Summary: THE BOOK THAT REJUVENATED MY READING!!!
Review: 3 years ago when I was 15 years old I went to the book store thinking I would find a good book to read. I had not read a book in a long time. I was going through the horror books and stumbled upon Clive Barker's The Thief Of Always. I read the back and just loved the idea so I grabbed the book and read it as soon as I got home. When finished I had looked through a whole new window in life. I went to the book store and bought EVERY Clive Barker book there was. Damnation game is my favorite book of his. But this book is the most sentimental to me. If I had never read this book back then I wouldent have read so many books in the past 3 years. I started reading books Barker recommended and then the books those guys recommended and so on and so forth. This is a good book and it is very dear to me.

Summary: This is My Favorite Book of All Time!!!!
Review: This book is excellent, I read it constantly. It's kind of like that saying the grass is greener on the other side, this book shows you the other side. Harvey's adventure is exciting, eventful and scary at the same time. My favorite things are the Christmas gifts and his new friends at the Holiday House. This book should be catagorized as not only a children's book but everyone's book. I can't say enough good things about it, all this is a huge understatement. Read It, You'll Love It!!!

Summary: An easy read, but full of mystical imagination
Review: The Theif of Always was easy to read, but did not fail to keep me interested. I picked it up one night while i was having trouble sleeping to put me to sleep, big mistake. The book kept me up the remainder of the night because i just wanted to know what came next. The book had moments that weren't as great as others, but this is the case in many books.

Summary: You will love this book!!
Review: I saw this book and thought it would be dumb. But I found out that it was really good. I coulnd't put it down. I finished in a hour and a half. I was surprised I'd like it. It teaches you some things about family and life and to appreciate what you've got.

Summary: Excellent read for all ages
Review: This is called a childrens book simply because a child of 12 could read it with no problem. However Fans of Barker, all ages, and fans of great stories and reading will enjoy the book greatly. A more mature reader could take more from this book then a young adult, who would be amused and entertain by the story itself.

Summary: Children love junk food
Review: "Children's book" is, so far as I'm concerned, a term of condemnation. The only truly good books are adult's books. Of course, some adult's books can be read and enjoyed by children as well, and they may as a result be unfairly branded as literature for children; but, in C.S. Lewis's words, a book worth reading only in childhood is not really worth reading even then.This is a children's book. As children's books go it's not bad. I rather enjoyed reading it; I even read it again; and I imagine children will enjoy reading it more than I did; but it leaves very little imprint on the mind. It's a kind of sweetened but flavourless horror. It reminded me how cliched the horror genre is: the ending (a real let-down) is a confrontation with Ultimate Evil which could have come from any one of a thousand cheap films, where the protagonist encounters something of great mythic power, beats it up, sees it resurrected, and then beats it up again. The book is not without its moments and these moments earn it three stars.
