Killer Crabs is the second book in Guy N. Smith’s iconic pulp horror Crabs series. In 1976, biologist Professor Davenport had led the British military in defeating monstrous crabs off the Welsh coast of Britain, saving the rest of humanity from a deadly fate. Or so he hoped. Four years later, in 1980, trawling Norwegian fishermen discover a giant crab in their catch. The crustacean makes a light snack of a crew member before disappearing back into the murky waters and the captain’s intended warning never reaches the authorities.

Professor Cliff Davenport's nephew disappears with his girlfriend while swimming off the Welsh Coast. Davenport discovers that a colony of giant crabs is responsible, and resolves to track down and destroy them. Will he succeed before the monstrous crabs devour entire human populations? Full of action, suspense and gore, this is classic 1970s animal attack horror by bestselling British author Guy N. Smith (1939-2020). Night of the Crabs (published originally by NEL in 1976) is the first in an 8-book series.
