Only a few know of the Imajica, and of those few many are frightened. A time of great risk and promise is coming when three memorable characters--John Furie Zacharias, known as Gentle, a master forger whose own life is a tissue of deception; Judith Odell, a beautiful woman desired by three men but belonging to none of them; and Pie `oh' Pah, an assassin who deals in love as well as death--will have the power to either reconcile Earth with her fellow Dominions or keep her adrift forever.

He was also the executive producer of the film *Gods and Monsters*. Barker's paintings and illustrations have been featured in galleries in the United States as well as within his own books.
