Adulting has hit hard recently so here’s a #flatlayfriday selection of books I loved as a youngster. Inappropriate reading for the win! I have received some amazing bookmail recently that I’ll post over the weekend. Now I need to retreat into a good book and soak up that Friday feeling! What books were you reading in your early teens that you shouldn’t have been? #flatlaytoday #horrorbookstagram

Look at this beautiful Centipede Press edition of The Jonah by James Herbert. They can still be had for about $40 from Ziesings if anyone is tempted—a very nice price​. It’s an excellent production—love that cover art by Ben Baldwin, just enough of a nod to the original for a vintage freak like me. I can’t yet vouch for the actual contents—I’m still a few titles away in my Herbert read-through, but I may have to pick up this edition instead of my vintage pb when the time comes. ⚓️ ⚓️ ⚓️ ⚓️ #jamesherbert #horrorbook #horrorbooks #horrorbookstagram #centipedepress #ziesings #horrorfiction #bookcollector

Últimamente estoy atrapada en los libros más dramáticos que puedan existir. Y por ahí me encontré ésta joyita de James Herbert "Dominios". Interesante todo lo que conlleva la guerra entre seres humanos, por las razones más inéditas, en las que se han convertido en las criaturas más vulnerables y presas de los roedores. No les cuento más y espero que les guste tanto como a mí. ¡Saludos y a leer! #dominios #ratasmutantesradioactivas #ratasmutantes #guerra #jamesherbert #p&j

Quite possibly my all time favourite ghost story on film. Based on the novel by James Herbert (which I've also read) and starring Aidan Quinn, Kate Beckinsale and Anthony Andrews. Quinn plays David Ash, a parapsychologist who sets out to disprove ghosts, hauntings and the supernatural. When he is invited to the stately home of Edbrook, David is plunged into a paranormal mystery that will make him question everything he has believed to be nothing more than stories. This is one I can't recommend enough for a solid ghost story. It is beautifully filmed and yet an eerily captivating story that makes you feel that you are right there in the house of Edbrook. - B #Haunted #Haunted1995 #AidanQuinn #KateBeckinsale #AnthonyAndrews #JamesHerbert #GhostStory #HorrorFilms #HorrorMovies #Podcast

Una novela pulp de terror de los 70. Con clara inspiración, creo yo , en los pájaros de Hitchcock y en la infancia de posguerra del autor viviendo en los suburbios destrozados de Londres. Aquí las ratas han probado la carne humana y les ha gustado. Con bastante crítica social y mucho de golpear al establishment del momento , Herbert nos propone una carrera contrarreloj para encontrar y eliminar a una plaga de ratas mutantes que se están haciendo con la ciudad . Imágenes impactantes y sórdidas que hacen muy amana está lectura. Reeditada recientemente por @labibliotecadecarfax . #jamesherbert #rats #gore #70s #pulp #labibliotecadecarfax

𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒮𝑒𝒸𝓇𝑒𝓉𝓈 𝑜𝒻 𝒞𝓇𝒾𝒸𝓀𝓁𝑒𝓎 𝐻𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝒷𝓎 𝒥𝒶𝓂𝑒𝓈 𝐻𝑒𝓇𝒷𝑒𝓇𝓉 So far, I have loved every James Herbert book that I have read and this one is no different. What is even better is that this book was just one of 13 books I got free from a Facebook Pong group! It’s a 633 page book and it was really exciting for me to get into a book that I’m looking forward to read more of, where I’m at work wondering what is going to happen in the next chapter. It’s a good old spooky story with twists and turns that keep you up at night saying to yourself “just one more chapter.” This is a later James Herbert book and you can see he has really honed his atmospheric writing. There are times where I actually felt as though I was in the story and that’s what I love about Herbert. The writing is powerful and the story can be disturbing in places - making you feel uncomfortable but unable to stop reading. I highly recommend this book if you are new to James Herbert or whether you’ve followed his work for years. 🩶🩶🩶🩶/5 #booksbooksbooks #bookstagramuk #bookworm #bookstagram #jamesherbert #jamesherbertauthor #jamesherbertbooks #book #bookreview #books #booklover #bookaddict #read #reading #goodreads #goodreadschallenge #readmorebooks #readerlife #instabooks #instabooks

Nosferatu the Vampyre, sviluppato da Design e pubblicato da Piranha Software nel 1986, è un gioco d'azione basato sul film con lo stesso nome e funziona sui computer Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64 e ZX Spectrum.     Un agente immobiliare di nome Jonathan Harker esplora un castello per trovare alcuni documenti importanti, mentre sua moglie Lucy insegue il vampiro che lo infesta.    Il gioco è composto da tre diverse fasi.  In ogni fase il giocatore assume il ruolo di un personaggio diverso; Jonathan nella prima fase, Van Helsing (insieme a Jonathan e Lucy) nella seconda fase e Lucy nella terza fase.   Le stanze del castello sono visualizzate in una vista isometrica.   Il giocatore può raccogliere quattro oggetti diversi, tra cui un'arma (come una pistola), uno strumento (ad esempio una lampada) e un oggetto curativo (come il cibo).  Il gioco è stato elogiato per la sua eccellente grafica e animazione dettagliate pur essendo paragonabile a The Great Escape.  Ha ricevuto il premio Your Sinclair Megagame. #retrogaming, #8bit, #chiller, #zombie, #rats, #therats, #jamesherbert, #jamesherbertauthor, #jamesherbertbooks, #london #witch #theevildead, #fridaythe13thgame, #jason, #aticatac, #magicastle #nightstalker, #phatomslay, #dracula, #nosferatuthevampyre, #nosferatu, #bramstoker

Chiller è un gioco arcade con armi leggere pubblicato nel 1986 da Exidy.    Nel gioco, il giocatore assume il ruolo di un torturatore invisibile che deve mutilare e uccidere personaggi non giocanti trattenuti in una varietà di ambientazioni sotterranee.   Pochi NPC nel gioco sono in grado di reagire, e l'elemento di sfida sta nella velocità con cui il giocatore può far morire ciascuna delle vittime.  Il gioco è composto da quattro livelli principali: la camera delle torture, la stanza degli scaffali, il corridoio della casa stregata e il cimitero.  Se si accumula un punteggio sufficiente completando questi livelli con successo, viene sbloccato un round bonus finale, che consiste in un tiro al bersaglio in cui è necessario sparare a oggetti che viaggiano a velocità sempre più elevate.   Tra un livello e l'altro è possibile ottenere un punteggio bonus vincendo alle slot machine.  I primi due livelli presentano NPC apparentemente umani trattenuti da dispositivi di tortura medievali.   Il giocatore deve scoprire come uccidere questi personaggi nel più breve tempo possibile.   Sebbene sia possibile sparargli, questo processo è inefficiente poiché i colpi diretti provocano solo la rimozione di pezzi di carne, lasciando le vittime in vita.  La sfida, invece, sta nel trovare il modo di attivare i dispositivi di tortura, provocando morti più rapide e sanguinose. Dopo i primi due livelli, il gioco passa a uno sparatutto più tradizionale; il giocatore deve uccidere creature paranormali, come zombi, fantasmi e mummie.    Il gioco ha venduto poco negli Stati Uniti perché i proprietari di sale giochi si sono rifiutati di acquistarlo; Exidy lo commercializzò con successo nei paesi del terzo mondo.  I revisori moderni spesso criticano il gioco per la sua violenza insensata e per l'incoraggiamento alla tortura e all'omicidio di persone apparentemente innocenti, in contrapposizione al giocatore che combatte nemici in grado di difendersi. #retrogaming, #8bit, #chiller, #zombie, #rats, #therats, #jamesherbert, #jamesherbertauthor, #jamesherbertbooks, #london #witch #theevildead, #fridaythe13thgame, #jason, #aticatac, #magicastle #nightstalker, #phatomslay

Aliens: The Computer Game è un videogioco del 1986 sviluppato da Software Studios e pubblicato da Electric Dreams Software inizialmente per Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64 e ZX Spectrum.     Il gioco è in prima persona ed è ambientato all'interno di un impianto di trattamento dell'atmosfera, un complesso labirintico composto da 255 stanze, infestato dagli alieni.   Questi nemici sono pericolosi anche da morti, infatti, una volta sconfitti, rilasciano una pozza mortale di sangue acido che deve essere assolutamente evitata.  Bisogna anche fronteggiare la minaccia della crescita biomeccanica che, se lasciata incontrollata, porta alla nascita di nuove uova aliene che, una volta schiuse, sprigioneranno la progenie dell’alieno che abbraccerà la faccia del giocatore.  Il giocatore può controllare direttamente una squadra di soldati della marina o impartire ordini alla squadra dalla Mobile Tactical Operations Bay (MTOB).   Quando si gioca dall'MTOB, il giocatore ha una visione dei dintorni della squadra tramite videocamere attaccate al casco di ciascun soldato.  L'obiettivo finale è raggiungere la stanza che ospita la Regina Aliena e i suoi nidi e distruggere entrambi.  A detta di Darren Jones, in una retrospettiva di Retro Gamer,   In una retrospettiva di Retro Gamer, Darren Jones ha affermato che Aliens “trasudava atmosfera”, nonostante fosse incredibilmente semplice da guardare ed era abbastanza diverso da qualsiasi altra conversione cinematografica dell'epoca.  Il gioco adattava perfettamente il momento del film in cui i marines iniziano ad esplorare la base deserta e, man mano che il gioco procedeva, riusciva a catturare tutto il terrore e la confusione del film in un modo in cui pochi altri titoli sono riusciti negli anni.  La rivista lo dichiarò anche "il gioco a 8 bit più spaventoso mai realizzato". #retrogaming, #8bit, #alien, #aliens, #alienabduction, #rats, #therats, #jamesherbert, #jamesherbertauthor, #jamesherbertbooks, #london #witch #theevildead, #fridaythe13thgame, #jason, #aticatac, #magicastle #nightstalker, #phatomslayer, #frankenstein, #maryshelley, #ghostmanor, #dracula, #mummy, #ghost

Moon by James Herbert 📚 BOOK REVIEW 📚 Moon was a decent supernatural novel. Herbert is a very skilled writer the way he can describe landscapes, characters and moods is a real talent he is very poetic especially in this novel. The plot whilst it was enjoyable just didnt grab me. I liked Childes a man with psychic abilities and the strained relationship with his girlfriends father was well written but I think I'm just not a massive fan of slow burn supernatural beings. The ending was rushed to me but overall I'm happy I read it. I did enjoy this it just didnt blow me away as one of Herbert's better works. What is your favourite of Herbert's works? #horrorbooks #HorrorCommunity #horrorfiction #booksofhorror #paperbacksfromhell #horrorjunkie #booksofinstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #horrorbookstagramer #horrorbookstagram #bookreview #bookrecommendations #bookreviewer #HorrorFamily #instahorror #horrorgram #bookoftheday #readingcommunity #horrorpaperback #horrorpaperbacks #readmorehorror #vintagehorror #vintagepaperback #vintagepaperbacks #bookmail #bookstack #jamesherbert #vintagereads

Finished my sixth book of the year. I love alternative history stories, I often always wonder what could have happened if the other side had won and what implications would have occurred. Eugene Nathaniel Hoke is an American pilot, part of the Eagle squadron who volunteered to fight for the allies in World War II before the Americans officially entered the conflict. But in this alternative history, Adolf Hitler, just before his defeat, unleashes a biological weapon using V-2 rockets that wipes out most of the human race. Hoke is stranded in a dystopian London, mainly a loner apart from a dog, Cagney. Whilst being gang of diseased and terminal Blackshirts, afflicted with the 'Slow Death', who attempt to capture him to use his blood to save their leader, Lord Hubble, via a blood transfusion. Hoke joins a group of other survivors, Cassie, a poor Cockney girl, Muriel, a rich girl, Albert Potter, an air raid warden and Stern, a German navigator who had escaped from a POW camp in Wales. All of whom are on the run. For Herbert it’s a return to a post-apocalyptic setting that’s reminiscent of 'Domain' (even the dreaded rats make an appearance). As well as the subject of neo-nazism which was first explored in 'The Spear'. Now this is the Herbert I love, piles of blood-soaked action in a non-stop bleak action setting. The alternative World War II history of ‘48 isn’t unique. Other writers have confronted it, but it's a fantastic return from one of my favourite writers, and that's good enough for me. #goodreads #goodreadschallenge #sixthbookoftheyear #2024 #48 #jamesherbert #completed #reading #ilovereading #bookworm

🐀 James Herbert - Lair Review: Sometimes various members of the Laymon bookclub suggest alternative books to read and I immediately jumped the chance when 'Lair' was chosen as last year I read 'The Rats' and coincidentally reviewed exactly a year ago today by me! Following the Rat destruction in London, the city has returned to a somewhat normality. Except strange sightings have been spotted in nearby Epping Forest by various citizens involving long tails and black fur. Rat-catcher Lucas Pender knows these aren't regular pest rats and once they have tasted human flesh, the real nightmare starts again... What I loved about this novel was it feels like the ideal sequel to a great Horror classic, I like the fact it features different characters to the first book and different setting though still retaining the south-east of England location. With the characters in this story, they give off such realism that British people may relate to folk such as these in day to day life, a sense of arrogance, egoistical traits and decisiveness. The true gem of the story obviously are the Rats themselves, especially the short phrases that appear throughout of their whereabouts and progression. The gore is featured heavily more and more as the novel unfolds and I had goosebumps reading the majority. Unfortunately I did like the first book slightly better but this may be due to not expecting as much shock this time round and I'm sure it will happen again with the third novel 'Domain' which I will get to in future! But I really loved this book and I will highly recommend it if you enjoyed 'The Rats' and want more vermin blood filled action! Rating: 9/10 • • • • 🐀 • • • •

The Rats è un'avventura testuale survival horror, basato sul romanzo del 1974 di James Herbert, pubblicato nel 1985 per i computer Commodore 64 e ZX Spectrum  Il gioco è una simulazione che consente al giocatore di inviare strategicamente forze di emergenza (sterminatori di topi, poliziotti, vigili del fuoco ed eventualmente truppe dell'esercito) nelle aree in cui si è diffusa la minaccia dei topi e fornire loro l'equipaggiamento.   Inoltre, il giocatore può ottenere dieci ricercatori per sviluppare armi aggiuntive, difese e super armi per tenere a bada i topi e fornire informazioni utili per progredire nel gioco.   In caso la minaccia dei ratti si estendesse oltre i confini di Londra, del Centro di ricerca, del Centro governativo o dell'appartamento di Harris o se tutte le forze di emergenza venissero distrutte, si avrebbe un game over.    Oltre al gameplay base di simulazione, il gioco passa improvvisamente al ruolo di un personaggio giocabile in uno scenario di avventura testuale scelto casualmente.   Il giocatore deve selezionare una o più opzioni verbali per eseguire azioni che consentano al personaggio di sopravvivere alla minaccia dei ratti ed evitare di essere ucciso.   Sebbene non sia fondamentale mantenere in vita i personaggi, salvarli garantisce al giocatore ulteriori rinforzi e ricerche per aiutarlo contro la minaccia dei ratti.  Tuttavia, se uno dei personaggi principali Harris, Howard o Foskins muore, il gioco finisce.  La versione ZX Spectrum di The Rats fu ben accolta al momento del rilascio nel 1985, ottenendo una valutazione di 5 stelle su Sinclair User, una valutazione di 4 stelle su Popular Computing Weekly, e una valutazione di 5 stelle su ZX. Informatica.     In Video Games Around the World, The Rats è descritto come uno dei primi giochi horror, considerato che il suo scopo è quello di spaventare il giocatore. #retrogaming, #8bit, #hauntedhouse, #rats, #therats, #jamesherbert, #jamesherbertauthor, #jamesherbertbooks, #london #witch #theevildead, #fridaythe13thgame, #jason, #aticatac, #magicastle #nightstalker, #phatomslayer, #frankenstein, #maryshelley, #ghostmanor, #dracula, #mummy, #ghost #fran

If we talk about horror, we have to mention James Herbert! This is one of his best books. And he makes it so easy to disbelieve in your first thoughts while reading it. Ash is our main character here. he is skeptic as hell about ghosts and such things from the beyond... He works for a paranormal investigation institute but his job is to reveal fake mediums and "charlatons"... He has built a famous career on that and so there's this family now, who confirms that their house is haunted for sure and they want his help either proving it is or it isn't. The rest of the story will leave a chill down your spine, while his visit there will have you asking some questions... All I can say is... The house is not haunted... 7/10 Loved the intensity James can put in words during the most disturbing scenes! #horrorbooks #scary #graveratings #haunted #jamesherbert

🐉April Wrap-Up🐉 🐉 It feels good to get back on track with my reading, and to make a little dent in the books I’ve been hoarding. I don’t have the room to keep books I’m not collecting, so I’m going to have to start doing a slow purge of things. 🐉 My favourite book of the month was without a doubt False Memory by Dean Koontz, although all the Koontz books I read were great, there was just the complexity and plot twists of False Memory that captivated me. My least favourite book was probably The Fog, but it was still a good read! 🐉 I have a lot of books by Guy N. Smith that I picked up from somewhere that I’d like to get through in May, short paperbacks with crazy stories I’m imagining from their cover art. I’d also like to get in a few more Dean Koontz books, but I’m not planning on pushing myself too far. . . #bookstagram #deankoontz #jamesherbert #aprilwrapup #horror #horrorbook #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #bookdragon #bookhoarder #bookcollector #horrorfan #52booksin52weeks #booklover #bookfan #deankoontzfan #deankoontzbooks #jamesherbertfan #jamesherbertbooks #readersofinstagram

So just finished reading haunted the first book in the David Ash series, I’ll admit it was boring in some parts but it was enjoyable mostly. Started reading book two (as I’d love to finish all three) 😱 it’s so much creepier than the first book! Only on page 38 and so much has happened. ••••••• #jamesherbert #horror #ghost #ghoststories #horrorbooks #horrorfiction #fiction #book #bookstagram #bookworm #literature #story #words #escapism #booksaremylife

The Rats by James Herbert But delayed on what I've been reading. Shock. But this book is one of the best horrors I've read. The description of the rats and the horror they leave in their wake is absolutely disgusting...but in a good way 😂 Herbert's writing is great at balancing the gore with the witty humour that the main character brings to the story, which gives you a bigger punch with every rat attack as it has such a start contrast. One of the only books that has grossed me out, but I loved Harris as a character and I see it as a perfect book to have kicked 2024 off! #therats #jamesherbert #horror #books #novel #gothic #gore #gruesome #disgusting #bookstagram #ramseyreadingchallenge #ramseybookclub

The Rats! Evil large sized rats with a hunger for human flesh! This is the first book he wrote and its so gripping within the first few pages. The rat attacks happen right away and he doesn't spare any details. So gross. The first time I read this I did it in one sitting. I literally couldn't put it down. I've read this book three times now and it still creeps me out. There are two other books that he wrote after this, Lair and Domain, that continue on the story of attacking rats. I haven't read them and I don't know if I really want to. 🤣 I use to love rats and think they were so cute. Now I can't help but wonder if they are plotting my demise. #jamesherbert #jamesherbertauthor #attack #ratattack #newenglishlibrary #horror #thriller #horrormayhem2024

#nowreading A gnarly Indiana Jones-esque thriller. It involves a dude named Steadman, ex-Mossad soldier now PI, who is drawn into a malevolent conspiracy involving brutal UK neo-Nazi occultists who resurrect Himmler while in pursuit of the Spear of Destiny to re-enact Parsifal and unleash an unholy horrror upon the world. I'm sure Herb will deliver some classic, gory, puply junkfood fun for the brain! And as far as book covers go this one would grab a few eyes on a train journey 😄 Have a good one friendos!

These are my #HorrorHopefuls for my current fixation, and I think it's a pretty varied stack. A few novels, collections, and anthologies here. You could almost call these my #MayHopefuls but I don't expect to get through them all this month. Based on how much I read in my sci-fi fixation, this feels realistic. In fact, I wouldn't be massively surprised if I make it through them all and need to gather some more. But naturally I'm also hoping to get a lot of writing done, and that might eat into my reading a little. We shall see. Here's the list of books (in stack order): • Cult of the Spider Queen by S. A. Sidor (from Arkham Horror) • Orphans of the Aftercosm by C. F.

I hate stickers on the covers of books, and as hard as I’ve tried to remove this one, I can’t fully take it off without taking pieces of the cover with it. There was a second sticker that came off so much easier, it gave me hope for the red one, but no dice. 🐉 3.5/5⭐️ - The government created a neurotoxin they couldn’t control, so they end up burying it in the ground. Years later an earthquake strikes and the canister holding the deadly concoction is freed and starts to travel, it grows as it feeds on carcinogens in the air and quickly starts effecting people, turning them violent and murderous. I was not prepared for the scenes that take place in this book, but what a bizarre read. It was certainly interesting, but I don’t think I’d pick it up again. . . #bookstagram #jamesherbert #thefog #horror #horrorbook #horrorbookstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #bookdragon #bookhoarder #bookcollector #booklover #52booksin52weeks #readersofinstagram

I’m sensing a theme of me reading books not knowing they’re part of a series before I start them, leading to me now needing more books. Which is terrible, I know, needing more books lol 🐉 4/5⭐️ - David Ash is a paranormal investigator working for an institution that sets out to prove and disprove sightings and phenomena, but David himself is a skeptic despite being the best at his job. The manor he sets out to investigate is old and unkept, and things are strange from the moment he sets foot in the building. This was a short read that took me a few days to get through but it was definitely entertaining, I can’t wait to find out what else happens to David Ash! . . #bookstagram #jamesherbert #haunted #horror #horrorbook #horrorbookstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #bookdragon #bookhoarder #bookcollector #booklover #52booksin52weeks #readersofinstagram

New booooooooks! I went into a charity shop yesterday and managed to find a nice copy of Micro but all the books were 2 for £1. I took Micro to the till and she told me about the deal, there was nothing else I wanted so I said I'm happy to pay £1 for one book but the woman wasn't having any of that! So I picked up Haunted (which I already have). That will go in a little library. I hope the previous owner got their bread and biscuits though. The Thief, Blue Gold and Death Train I found in a little free library I passed while I was at work today. The Secret of Crickley Hall and Pirate Latitudes are both hardcover upgrades, so my paperback ones will go in a little free library. It seems Ivy is a fan of Pirate Latitudes! #books #newbooks #usedbooks #prelovedbooks #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookhaul #littlefreelibrary #littlefreelibraries #littlefreelibrariesofinstagram #littlefreelibraryhaul #micro #michaelcrichton #richardpreston #haunted #jamesherbert #thethief #clivecussler #justinscott #deathtrain #alastairmaclean #alastairmacneill #bluegold #paulkemprecos #piratelatitudes #thesecretofcrickleyhall #booksfromthemorgue

Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay. I have been looking to read some of Paul’s work for a while now and when this title was announced, I quickly pre-ordered the hardcover which will be published on 11th June 2024 by Titan books. I ordered the signed edition from Forbidden Planet which will be released a week or so later. Titan Books also sent me an advance review copy so I am really excited to be able to start reading it earlier than I expected. As a massive Joe Hill fan, the quote from him on the front of the book is a perfect recommendation. Let me know if you have read any of Paul’s other books and if you have a particular favourite that I should read. #paultremblay #shelfie #bookstagram #stephenking #hardcasecrime #clivebarker #jamesherbert #joehill #signedbooks #bookspines #books

So this month with my reading I'm doing things a bit differently. I'm going to participate in horror MAYhem. Each week you have a specific category to read from, as well as little other prompts throughout the month. This is my base to start from. I most likely will be reading more but 10 is a good start. The Island Of Dr. Moreau by H.G. Wells Disturb Not The Dream by Paula Trachtman The Rats by James Herbert The Cabin At The End Of The World by Paul Tremblay The Spider And The Fly by Claudia Rowe Number One Fan by Meg Elison At First Light by Barbara Nickless Hater by David Moody Exit 22 by P.M.

Two for Tuesday and an open book challenge! I was thinking what to post for today's two for Tuesday and I've decided it'll be a good idea to do an A-Z. 26 books going through the alphabet. One book for each letter. After all, every book we read is just the same 26 letters rearranged. Today I've used my A and Z books. I know this has probably been done before but hey, why the hell not!? A few rules: 1. Each book's title must begin with the letter you are using. For example. A - Ash. 2. 'The' can only be used under the letter T. For example, you can't use The Rats for your R book. It would have to be under T. 3. You can use any books. Fiction, non-fiction, graphic novels etc.... 4.. Have fun! Use as many wacky and out there books as you want! Let's show off our book collections! Bonus points if you only use an author once. Don't forget to tag me with #booksfromthemorgue if you decide to give it a go. I'll be posting mine on Saturday! #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookchallenge #openbookchallenge #atozbookchallenge #jamesherbert #ash #davidash #jamesherbertash #zerogravity #woodyallen #woodyallenbook #twofortuesday #booksfromthemorgue

📚 𝔹𝕆𝕆𝕂 ℝ𝔼𝕍𝕀𝔼𝕎 "Le Secret de Crickley Hall" - James Herbert 😨 Tout juste terminé ce roman qui fait frissonner. Une vieille demeure anglaise, la mort tragique d'orphelins pendant la seconde guerre mondiale et des phénomènes étranges ! Une histoire assez intense où il se passe toujours quelque chose. Quelques longueurs malgré tout pour cette histoire de maison hantée plutôt classique. A lire ! #livres #romans #lecture #lectrice #ʟᴇᴄᴛᴜʀᴇᴀᴅᴅɪᴄᴛ #pilealire #lesecretdecrickleyhall #jamesherbert #kobo #roman #litteratureanglaise #litteraturebritannique

My author shrine is now complete with James Herbert and Clive Barker finally added. I don’t normally collect paperback books but the Hard Case Crime books are so good and if I see a signed Joe Hill book I don’t have, I will buy it regardless. I removed my box folders to allow me to stack some books at the front of the shelves as I struggle for space. It has allowed me to move some of my Stephen King books from my main bookcases ready for You Like It Darker to arrive. The comics (Creepshow, Hill and King), chapbooks and promo items take up quite a bit of space too. #clivebarker #jamesherbert #stephenking #bookstagram #richardchizmar #horrorbooks #horrorbookstagram #shelfie #bookspines #bookcovers #hardcasecrime #creepshow

A friend sent me this - it was my favourite book when I was 13 - 14 and I hadn't read it since then. Jesus! I wasn't surprised by the gore and nastiness (it's about the survivors of a nuclear war being attacked and eaten by big rats) but the opening chapters (the best bit) where the missiles hit London is so insanely bleak and depressing! But at the time, the details of what it would be like were so familiar (I remember the "Protect and Survive" leaflets & stuff about eating your household pets) that I don't think it really penetrated and I was able to just go about my teenage business as usual. Don't buy into 80s nostalgia folks! #book #bookstagram #reading #books #JamesHerbert #Domain #horror #80shorror #novel #therats #paperback #1980s

Bon dimanche les amis ! Vu le temps aujourd'hui, pour moi, ce sera lecture. J'espère pouvoir terminer ce roman de James Herbert. Un roman d'horreur dont l'action se passe dans une maison hantée. #bondimanche #lecture #jamesherbert #lesecretdecrickleyhall #litteratureanglaise

🐀Rezension🐀 Die Ratten von James Herbert Die Ratten ein schon etwas älteres Buch, welches sich dennoch sehen lassen kann. Klar ein komplexes literarisches Werk sollte man hierbei nicht erwarten, aber trotzdem lesenswert. Eine „leichte“ Story der man selbst nach einem stressigen Tag bequem folgen kann. Lesen und genießen. Ratten rufen bei vielen Menschen Ekel hervor, bei denen von Herbert sogar verständlich. So groß wie Hunde möchte man ihnen nicht begegnen, leider muss sich Harris (der Hauptprotagonist, das allerdings aber schon. Die Geschichte ich schnell erzählt bei gerade mal 219 Seiten. Der Schreibstil ist flüssig bei mittellangen Kapitel. Es handelt sich bei „Die Ratten“ um den ersten Band der Rattenreihe. Ich wurde gut unterhalten ohne viel nachdenken zu müssen. Irgendwann folgt sicherlich auch Band 2 „Die Brut“ ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ , 5 von 5 Sternen #rezension #roman #jamesherbert #bookaholic #bücherliebe #lesen #germanbookstagram #buchliebe #lesenmachtglücklich #booknerd #reading #instabooks #leseliebe #books #mybookfeatures #readingtime #bookstagramdeutschland #büchersüchtig #bücher #reading #loverofbooks #bookcommunity #thriller #roman #dieratten
