- Book Synopsis
- 'Splatterpunk deluxe . . . I loved it then, love it still' - Stephen King The brutal, masterfully gory classic of British horror, The Rats is the multimillion-copy bestseller from James Herbert. The first victim was a former paper salesman drinking himself into oblivion down by the docks. Next a child and her beloved dog, then six drifters fighting over a bottle of gin - all devoured by a black, writhing mass of giant rats. As London descends into panicked chaos, high school teacher Harris is pulled head-first into the nightmare when a student arrives with a rat bite on his hand. And he quickly realises that this is no ordinary creature, nothing like anyone has ever seen before. With their intelligent, wicked-looking eyes and razor-sharp teeth, the balance of power between man and rat has suddenly - shockingly, horribly - shifted. The rats have had their first taste of human blood. And they're hungry for more . . . 'Lean, mean, and nasty as punk, The Rats are here!' - Grady Hendrix, bestselling author of How to Sell a Haunted House 'A seminal work from a king of British horror' - Adam Nevill, author of The Ritual
