					<description><![CDATA[<b>The fiftieth-anniversary edition of a horror classic. From James Herbert, the king of British horror, <i>The Fog </i>is the horrifying story of a fog that drives the inhabitants of an ordinary Wiltshire village insane.</b>]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>A special fiftieth-anniversary edition of a horror classic from James Herbert, bestselling author of <i>The Rats.</i></b></p>
<p>It started with a crack that ripped the earth apart. Then out of the bottomless pit creeps a malevolent fog that leaves a deadly trail in its wake.</p>
<p>John Holman is on a secret assignment from the Department of the Environment when he is dragged into the clutches of this oppressive fog. After a series of grisly axe murders, rampaging livestock and the near-loss of his own sanity, it becomes clear to John that this unstoppable fog is destined to twist the minds and devastate the lives of all those it encounters.</p>
<p>Yet the true horror is only just beginning . . .</p>
<p><b>&#8216;James Herbert comes at us with both hands&#8217; &#8211; Stephen King</b></p>
<p><b>A chilling story of madness and murder, <i>The Fog</i> explores the immense destruction chemical weapons can cause &#8211; and is a stark reminder of humanity&#8217;s frailty in the face of uncontrollable forces.</b></p>

					<description><![CDATA[<b>The fiftieth-anniversary edition of the bestselling horror classic.</b>]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>A special 50th anniversary edition of the classic bestselling horror novel <i>The Rats</i></b></p>
<p><b><i>&#8216;The Rats</i> is splatterpunk deluxe. Not only great, gory fun but a prime example of what was once called &#8220;the British nasty.&#8221; I loved it then, love it still&#8221; &#8211; Stephen King, author of <i>The Shining </i>and <i>Carrie </i></b></p>
<p>The first victim was a former paper salesman drinking himself into oblivion down by the docks. Next a child and her beloved dog, then six drifters fighting over a bottle of gin &#8211; all devoured by a black, writhing mass of giant rats.</p>
<p>As London descends into panicked chaos, high school teacher Harris is pulled head-first into the nightmare when a student arrives with a rat bite on his hand. And he quickly realises that this is no ordinary creature, nothing like anyone has ever seen before.</p>
<p>With their intelligent, wicked-looking eyes and razor-sharp teeth, the balance of power between man and rat has suddenly &#8211; shockingly, horribly &#8211; shifted.</p>
<p>The rats have had their first taste of human blood.</p>
<p>And they&#8217;re hungry for more . . .</p>
<p><b>&#8216;Lean, mean, and nasty as punk, <i>The Rats</i> are here! Capable of inciting riots and causing bloodshed&#8217; &#8211; Grady Hendrix, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>How to Sell a Haunted House</i></b></p>
<p><b>&#8216;A seminal work from a king of British horror&#8217; &#8211; Adam Nevill, author of <i>The Ritual</i></b></p>
<p><b>With a foreword by Neil Gaiman, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>Good Omens</i></b></p>

					<description><![CDATA[Would you stay in a haunted house for more than one night? The Caleighs had their reasons, but the secret of Crickley Hall soon fills their nightmares.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b><i>The Secret of Crickley Hall</i> is James Herbert&#8217;s number one bestseller. It explores the darker, more obtuse territories of evil and the supernatural. With brooding menace and rising tension, he masterfully and relentlessly draws the reader through to the ultimate revelation &#8211; one that will stay to chill the mind long after the book has been laid aside.</b></p>
<p>The Caleighs have had a terrible year . . . They need time and space, while they await the news they dread. Gabe has brought his wife, Eve, and daughters, Loren and Cally, down to Devon, to the peaceful seaside village of Hollow Bay. Perhaps here they can try, as a family, to come to terms with what&#8217;s happened to them . . . </p>
<p> Crickley Hall is an unusually large house on the outskirts of the village at the bottom of Devil&#8217;s Cleave, a massive tree-lined gorge &#8211; the stuff of local legend. It&#8217;s perfect for them, if a bit gloomy. And Chester, their dog, seems really spooked at being away from home. And old houses do make sounds. And it&#8217;s constantly cold. And even though they shut the cellar door every night, it&#8217;s always open again in morning . . .</p>
