A surprising amount of sex was squeezed into a plot about giant mutant rats eating people alive, but that’s classic horror for you. Loved the sort of short stories weaved into the overarching plot.

Yeah there’s nasty, infectious rats but I genuinely preferred them to the main character, the view on women is just appalling and I can’t stand when people say it was different then. Okay doesn’t mean it didn’t make you an a**hole.
1 star solely for the cool mutant rat at the end.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book by James Herbert which was my second time reading it. A strange and intense story which although has not happened, could in theory!norwegianforestreader's review against another edition
