Weird and quirky. This book tells the story of three friends and one villain who jump through a hole between worlds, and the adventures that ensue.
A very quick, plot-based read. The antics and storytelling reminded me of a whimsical children's story, but with more adult themes. The ending of the story was abrupt, but the closing poems were a lot of fun. And the last line in this book is really quite profound.
My mind is still a bit boggled from this one. What did I just actually read?!

This is an adorable collection of short stories and poems that glimpses into a fantastical world following the adventures of some of its creatures. It was very sweet to have each character's story mingle with the other characters so it completed one cohesive narrative. I think this is more geared for young/middle-grade readers, but still, it's very sweet.

This was a very quick read. Definitely a fun, whimsical and imaginative story. Even though this story seems geared towards more of a YA audience, I'd still read more adventures of the Jump Tribe. I've been reading Clive Barker since I was in high school (40 years ago or so), and haven't read a bad story yet. Can't wait to see what he writes next!

Especially delightful, especially imaginative, and subtly thought-provoking in the fashion of all talented Speculative Fiction, JUMP TRIBE collects short tales and poems about a small group of creature-friends and their very unexpected and sometimes dangerous adventures through a series of Wormholes. There's much below the surface to be pondered here. From the perennially imaginative Clive Barker.
