London in 1948 is devastated by a Nazi-created hemorrhagic plague in versatile British horror novelist Herbert's (The Ghosts of Sleath) frisky foray into splatterpunk alternative historical fiction. Continue reading » It was then that I noticed a change in him, a stiffening of body, an even greater sharpness in those cold, blue eyes. It was barely perceptible, but alterations in moods is another thing I’m good at recognizing – or sending. It follows that there is a skill in making a reader cry but first and foremost, I don't really enjoy deeply depressing stories, or stories that are going to upset me for days and days afterwards. Secondly, it's rare for me to cry during a movie, so for a book, this state is almost unattainable. Besides, I'd rather be scared out of my wits, or contemplating the dark side of human nature in a way that is removed from my daily life and therefore 'safe'. So even though I am a HUGE horror fan, this was my first James Herbert I believe. I did enjoy the way he wrote, I think he has a deft skill in providing the situation and characters in a detailed way. However he is somewhat clumsy in structure and the book was needlessly long. Saying that I did enjoy it, even if it started to take a troubling path towards the end. Paper. Condition: Very Good. First Edition.

Upon his death a movie star handsome man jumps at the chance when offered another life to redeem himself from living such a selfish and vain life. He will have no memory of his current life and will return horribly disfigured.Others" by James Herbert is a spine-chilling horror novel that delves into the concept of evil and the supernatural. Set in a quaint English village, eerie events begin to unfold, leading our protagonist to unearth a dark and sinister secret. I felt uncomfortable with the underlying karma underpinnings to the story for although I get his point and it was not so crudely drawn as I shall now state- It was on the premise that: a man was reborn bearing the ugly nature of his personality on the outside in a second life. And so unfortunate handicaps may be construed as punishment from a previous life, something I find hard to swallow and, yes, discriminative. Others ( A Song of Ice and Fire), supernatural creatures in the fictional world of George R. R. Martin's fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire So, aside from the opening, the dream sequences, the psychic, and questionable pacing, I will say there's some really good set pieces, and some decently horrific stuff that Herbert leads you through, at times almost skirting Clive Barker territory. The theme of redemption is echoed throughout the novel, and I thoroughly enjoyed following the character's journey and learning about the fate of the Others.

What starts out looking like a mystery in a search of a missing son for a client...turns into anything but. What Dis finds in an upscale nursing home, is unimaginable. This is a creepy, disgusting and sad story rolled in to one. What made it even more of a creepy story, was Mr. Herbert's end note. Based on a true incident years ago in London. My friend and I decided to read this book together after reading the synopsis. It sounded like it would be a dark and disturbing read. Well that it was, among other things. Although I did enjoy it, I did not love it.
