RE: James Herbert died

I read a few of his stories when I was a kid, and they've always stayed with me. I have meant to read some more, but just neve got round to it.

R.I.P.

Big shame. Must be 25 years since I read 'The Fog' expecting it to be like the film of the same name only to find it was very different and much better. Read pretty much everything he's done since then.

Ooh yeah, big agree from me! I read 'The Fog' when I was about 13. The scene in the school gym always stuck with me. Brutal and brilliant.
