James Herbert Books
READY TO BE TERRIFIED?
A group of tales by the English master of horror stories, James Herbert, OBE (1943-2013), winner in 2010 of the World Horror Convention Grand Master Award.
Well read and worn already, but still worth a place in your horror collection - if you dare - they are:
The Rats - first published 1974; this New English Library printing 1989 [Should be given an award as the most gruesome book of the year…]
The Fog - first published 1975; this New England Library printing 1987 [A powerful story of murder, mayhem and madness…]
Lair - first published 1979; this New English Library printing 1989 [A chilling and gruesome novel which moves at a tremendous pace…]
Shrine - first published 1983; this New English Library printing 1984 [Will strike chills down your spine…]
Domain - first published 1984; this New English Library printing 1988 [It is what he implies, rather than what he so skilfully describes…]

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.1% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.3% No, I enjoy it
-
1.5% Other - I'll share below
