James Herbert

James Herbert - Nobody True

I wasn’t there when I died. I was having one of those out-of-body dreams, the kind where you feel your spirit has left your body and it isn’t really a dream. You may have read about the phenomenon, you might even have experienced it yourself. But somebody murdered me while I was away. Mutilated me. Chopped me to pieces. Left nothing for me to come back to.

A brilliant gripping book, sad and scary, certainly made me think of how many people we trust in this world and whether they have hidden agenda's or what secrets they hide. An amazing last chapter which I took great comfort in - dying isn't the end. Extremely well written with true feeling and frustration.

James Herbert - The Ghosts of Sleath

Can a ghost haunt a ghost? Can the dead reach out and touch the living?

Can ancient evil be made manifest?

These are the questions that confront psychic investigator David Ash when he delves into the mysterious events terrorizing the community of Sleath, a small and quaint village hidden away in the Chiltern Hills.

Really good read if you like mysteries and ghosts. As you read the book you find that you also turn investigator and realise that you are putting things together, but there are twists that you don't expect.

Do a report on them then Noel so we can build up a good book report for other people to read and decide whether to try one of his books.
