Advantages: One more to go! Disadvantages: Could have been clearer character blending with Rats
...setting much more pleasing in Lair than in The Rats, simply because it was out of a dreary London street/sewer and into the fresh green surroundings of the forest. The book was published in 1979 but it does not feel as dated as the first one did to me and the background was much more pleasurable to read about, which actually led to more horror as the animals were massacred by the rats.
The ending of this book was very good and I have to say it could ... ...I was reading as it has been so well written that it is hard to tell what will become of everyone and has to be one of my favourite endings of a horror story. There was enough gore and horror to satisfy fans and enough character story tied in with the revulsion to satisfy the less blood lusty of us.
Overall, I am again very pleased that there is one more book to read in this trilogy, being Domain, and I look forward to it with anticipation. ...
