This eventually features the girlfriend from the first story. I really enjoyed this chapter of the book, as I too am currently on my first term of university, as well as it being an exciting read and showing some interesting things about human behaviour. This, in my opinion, is by far the best story in the book, and could easily be released as a book in its own right. I would say that this story is amongst ... ...has been a resounding success to me, but the next three stories, for me, could easily have been cut out. They are much much shorter than the first two and seem almost without point, and are for the most part completely uninteresting. These two feel tacked on, as if King needed to fill a quota of page numbers, or just got lazy towards the end. Getting through these last three was quite hard going, as I struggled to maintain my interest. I would recommend ... readingac1 15.01.2006 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Hearts In Atlantis - Stephen King	Would you read it again?

Trashy Classic Horror Advantages: A very easy read - with an unexpected twist! Disadvantages: A bit cheesy - especially the film This is a classic scary story... it was the first I read by James Herbert and it got me hooked! It is a trashy horror - a nice easy read - but I wouldn't reccommend reading it alone in bed! It's so good that a film was made based on this book - film is a bit cheesy! It can be very frightening in parts - but if you are already a fan you will expect this. It is like one of those ghost stories you hear - that you are not sure whether to believe ... amylovelace 19.10.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Haunted - James Herbert	Would you read it again?

Everyone has a price... Advantages: Hutson back on form Disadvantages: None ...plane/beach/at the villa/etcetera. I spotted Hell To Pay in a rack of paperbacks. I decided to give it a go. What did I have to lose? It's free to borrow from the library, so if it's rubbish; c'est la vie. It wasn't rubbish. It was great. A return to form. A return to the good old days of sex and violence, troubled maverick coppers and underlying supernatural terror. Here's a summary of the plot and characters: DI Alan Fielding is investigating ... ...was a nice touch. Hell To Pay retails at £6.99, which is the going rate for a paperback. I got it out of the library for free. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes horror fiction, particularly if you enjoy urban British horror. I also recommend you join your local library.

Death and Beyond Advantages: Totally compelling read, no 'filler' content Disadvantages: Puts some of Koontz's other novels to shame ...Dean Koontz at his best. Hideaway is a fantastically descriptive novel that succeeds in doing what I feel good writing should, it fills your mind with images, totally absorbs you, takes you away from the boundaries of normality and introduces you to a world that is beyond the average imagination, frighteningly surreal. You’re given little tasters of the plot developing as it twists and turns throughout the book but never too much at a time. ... ...yet to encounter Koontz, then Hideaway is a great introduction to his writing. Die-hard fan or casual reader, I’d be surprised if you are left anything less than completely taken by this book. You can buy Hideaway online from whsmith.co.uk, or amazon.co.uk for the normal price of £6.99 although it’s currently on sale at both sites for £5.59 (exc p&p). Publisher: Headline Bk. Pub.

Check under the bed before going to sleep Advantages: I liked how it made you feel uneasy when you read it. Disadvantages: I wasn't that keen on the ending. I enjoyed this book, it makes you look behind you and look under the bed and in the cupboad before going to sleep. It's creepy but a little unrealistic. The book keeps you hooked and you want to know what happens. I didn't really like the ending though, I won't spoil it but I think it spoiled a good book, but that's just my opinion. I would give it a read and find out for youself, you may think it is the best ending you have ever read.
