Summary: Absolutely Chilling
Comment: Others is the book that lovers of horror fiction dream about, and James Herbert is the author that all Horror writers should strive to be. Without a doubt I have never read a horror novel of this calibur, nor have I read an author with this amount of talent.
Herbert himself has a tendancy to take us through some amazing twists and turns in his stories, tugging at our emotions and at our fear, digging up within the reader the thing that terrifies him or her most so that he brings us to the point where we are as terrified as we can become.
Others takes this terror one step further, with a story that is based on fact in a way that leaves the reader trembling with exhaustion and terror. Herbert takes us on a trip into some of the most depraved minds imaginable, and leads us through twists and turns that truly brings the reader right into the amazing plot of the outstanding novel.
Thrill seeking readers will enjoy this book for the pumping adrenhalin it provides. Lovers of horror fiction will be on the edges of their seats. And if this is the first James Herbert book you buy... Read it in the dark, and see how you sleep.

Summary: Creepiest book that actually gave me chills!
Comment: I must say this is the best book I have read in months! I was surprized throughout the novel, and for me, that's rare. As an avid horror reader, it's pretty hard to find a book that will either scare or suprize me.
I sat down in the store and read the first chapter and was hooked. This book is clever and very spooky. I don't scare easily, but it took a while for me to fall alseep after reading this!
The characters are wonderfully written, and the plot is really engaging. However, I think the best part of this book is how visual everything is, and also how James Herbert doesn't stop-the picture doesn't fade to black when the crepy monster is leaning over the fainting lady, we get to see what happens behind that black curtain most authors draw.
Overall, I was greatly impressed and highly reccomend this book to any horror lover, or someone who just wants a really good novel to read!

Summary: creeped me out but got me thinking
Comment: When I finished this book I was as they say, totally creeped. I was expecting something along the lines of Haunted or Ghosts of Sleath (both 5-star books, by the way) but Others was very different. I was more caught up in the morality of it all than with the clairvoyance or more "spooky" aspects. At the end of the book where the author says this book was somewhat based on true events he'd heard about from someone else, I did a double take thinking that his statement couldn't possibly be true. Or could it? That part scared me the most, to be honest. I would recommend this book to anyone but I wouldn't let my 13 year old read it because of the incredibly disturbing images. It is one of those books that, aside from the fictional aspects, really leads a person to think.
