About this ebook
The restless rats return in James Herbert's Lair, the second horror novel in the Rats trilogy.
The mutant white rat 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 . . .
'Not for the nervous' – Daily Mirror
Continue the chilling series from the Master of Horror, with Domain.

Well, that's the second part of the rat trilogy finished, and enjoyed. Read them years ago, but enjoyed re-visiting them from the Master. Just Domain to go now, so looking forward to downloading the final conflict between us and them! Highly recommended to anyone who likes a good horror read, and hasn't read these yet.

Having read most of James Herbert's work in my mid teens, I recently decided to start re-reading them, and I've been pleasantly surprised at how good they still are (some 15 years since my first encounter) Every chapter is more gripping than the last, making this hard to put down (when I should be having an early night)

About the author
James Herbert was not just Britain’s number one bestselling writer of chiller fiction, a position he held ever since publication of his first novel, but was also one of our greatest popular novelists. Widely imitated and hugely influential, his twenty-three novels have sold more than fifty-four million copies worldwide, and have been translated into over thirty languages, including Russian and Chinese. In 2010, he was made the Grand Master of Horror by the World Horror Convention and was also awarded an OBE by the Queen for services to literature. His final novel was Ash. James Herbert died in March 2013.
