Rendition Concering Books Lair (Rats #2)

(Audiobook) Pets, forest animals, men, women, children. It doesn't really matter. It's all good for the carnivorous mutant rat. It has been five years since the sanguinary rat invasion of London city. Barely escaping extermination, a few rat survivors slowly start to thrive again in a nearby forest. Poison resistant, stronger, more cunning and vicious than ever before. A few key people may be the only thing that might stop them, if they somehow manage not to get swarmed and ferociously chewed to pieces in the process. A sea of giant rats is forging, and this time, no one will escape the incoming onslaught. Took some time to start, but once the goriness started, there was no turning back. Unspeakable carnage. Rat savagery everywhere. Few, if any at all, characters spared. An entertaining sequel. Not as good as the original, but good nonetheless. I came looking for blood and that's exactly what I got. Maybe the surprise element was lost. Also the main characters seemed wildly undeveloped; not that you are going to read a horror rat novel for its character building of course, but hey, at any rate, compared to the first novel, it did get noticed. Overall, an entertaining, albeit slightly inferior, clone. Until next time, ----------------------------------------------- Mascotas, animales de selva, hombres, mujeres, niños. En verdad no importa. Todo es bueno para la rata carnívora mutante. Han pasado algunos años desde la sanguinaria invasión de ratas en la ciudad de Londres. Apenas escapando la exterminación, algunas ratas sobrevivientes lentamente empiezan a prosperar de nuevo en una selva cercana. Resistentes al veneno, más fuertes, inteligentes y viciosas que nunca antes. Sólo un puñado de gente clave puede ser la única cosa que podría llegar a detenerlas, si es que de alguna forma logran no ser emboscadas y ferozmente masticadas en el proceso. Un mar de ratas gigantes se está forjando, y esta vez, nadie va a escapar el embate por venir. Tarda algun tiempo en arrancar, pero una vez que la sangre empieza a derramarse, no hay vuelta atrás. Carnicería indescriptible. Salvajía ratona a diestra y siniestra. Pocos, si es que alguno en absoluto, personajes perdonados. Una secuela entretenida. No tan buena como la original, pero buena de todos modos. Vine buscando sangre y eso es exactamente lo que obtuve. Tal vez se perdió el elemento sorpresa. Además, los personajes parecían increíblemente subdesarrollados; no que uno vaya a leer una novela de horror de ratas por su construcción de personajes por supuesto, pero bueno, al menos comparada con la primera novela, sí se notó la diferencia. En resumen, un entretenido, aunque ligeramente inferior, clon. Hasta la próxima,

Piece Regarding Books Lair (Rats #2)

After really enjoying The Rats, I found Lair to be a bit of a step backwards. There was some good rat violence as you'd expect but overall this was a weaker story with weaker characters than the first one. However it does further the evil rats storyline and throws in an unexpected twist at the end which leads to the triumphant Domain.

LairThere's something uniquely special about the books you read as a young adult if they're actually set in your hometown. It doesn't take much for the imagination to go to work. And it bumps it up a notch when the author throws a hoard of highly intelligent and super-aggressive vermin predators into the mix. I grew up very near to Epping Forest, so when James Herbert's Lair was published in 1979 it pressed all the right buttons.Four years before the action starts, almost all the mutant giant

The 2nd in the trilogy, after I'd read the 1st some 30 years ago. There is a new protagonist, and I enjoyed his view, along with a blossoming love story.This novel is set 4-5 years after the first, with the surviving mutant rodents relocating to a peaceful forest area outside London.

An unnecessary and unjustified sequel to a pretty shitty novel. Contains all of James Herbert's usual inputs: well-written but unstirring horror, boringly normal protagonists, gratuitous and cliched sex and the ominous promise of another one.

The second book in Herbert's Rats trilogy, picks up a couple of years later and has a completely different cast of characters from the first book. Some giant, mutant rats that survived the first book flee London to a nearby forest where they regain their numbers. They begin to terrorize the countryside, including a police academy that is in the vicinity. This shows Herbert's growth as a novelist. The story is more concisely told and the ending is more satisfying than the Rats.

I don't know why but I have such a weakness for animals turn on people books and movies (from great ones to The Birds to terrible fun ones like The Swarm). This one is part 2 of The Rats trilogy--and is very solid but The Rat books are more schlock than high literature. For a 40 year old series it's held up very well I think. I read earlier about how some think Herbert modernized horror and was an innovator and I have to agree. They're crude but very effective and almost impossible to put down

Lair is about what you would expect from your average sequel. The plot is bigger and badder, but the overall gist of the action remains the same. There were new characters and a few allusions to old ones. Except for a few especially intense or creative moment, I felt like I had been there and done that. I think ill wait about a year before tracking down the third book, and maybe that will keep things feeling more fresh. The overall quality of the writing was excellent. Where else are you going
