Book Two in Herbert’s classic ‘rats’ series.

They've waited long enough. The mutant white rats had grown and mated, creating offspring in its own image. They dominated the others, the dark-furred ones, who foraged for food and brought it back to the lair. Now the dark rats were restless, tormented by a craving they could not satisfy. But the white slug-like thing that ruled them knew. Its two heads weaved to and fro and a stickiness drooled from its mouth as it remembered the taste of human flesh.

James Herbert was one of Britain’s greatest popular novelists and our #1 best-selling writer of chiller fiction. Widely imitated and hugely influential, he wrote 23 novels which have collectively sold over 54 million copies worldwide and been translated into 34 languages.

Born in London in the forties, James Herbert was art director of an advertising agency before turning to writing fiction in 1975. His first novel, The Rats, was an instant bestseller and is now recognised as a classic of popular contemporary fiction.

Herbert went on to publish a new top ten best-seller every year until 1988. He wrote six more bestselling novels in the 1990s and three more since: Once, Nobody True and The Secret of Crickley Hall.

Herbert died in March 2013 at the age of 69.

Editör yorumları

In his 1974 novel, Rats, British horror master James Herbert inspired millions of nightmares with his vision of a world overrun with mutant rats that begin to consume the people of London. Its sequel, Lair, continues this chilling story.

Performed in a sonorous British accent by David Rintoul, Lair finds the rats regrouping in the English countryside. When they strike again, it’s up to protagonist and rat catcher Lucas Pender to fight them off.

Rintoul’s narration picks up in intensity and sharpens in tone during Lair’s many action-packed and grisly scenes.

Eleştirmen yorumları

“Herbert was by no means literary, but his work had a raw urgency. His best novels, The Rats and The Fog, had the effect of Mike Tyson in his championship days: no finesse, all crude power. Those books were best sellers because many readers (including me) were too horrified to put them down.” (Stephen King)
"There are few things I would like to do less than lie under a cloudy night sky while someone read aloud the more vivid passages of Moon. In the thriller genre, do recommendations come any higher?" (Andrew Postman, The New York Times Book Review)
"Herbert goes out in a blaze of glory" ( Daily Mail)

The story is good., not quite in the same league as Rats but an engaging sequel. What made this one of my favourites is David Rintoul's performance. He gives the book the intense energy a good horror story requires.

Fabulous narration

A really good continuation of The Rats. New characters help the story to expand and develop from the original city location and with more horror and more rats it kept me glued to my headphones again.

A strong sequel.

Brilliant continuation to the original storyline in The Rats. I think this was even more suspenseful and gory than than the first book. I hope Domain the last in this trilogy is just as good.

Great Sequel

I read the 'Rats' trilogy as a young lad, way back when.

I loved them then, and love them even more now. The performance, sometimes felt a little over the top during main action scenes, but this did not detract from the overall great performance.

James Herberts writing as always, in my opinion, been graphical giving the reader a clear image of the scene.

Also recommend Unabridged Secret of Crickley Hall, ASH series, Fog.

Just as good as I remember
