A special fortieth anniversary edition of The Rats, the classic, bestselling horror novel that launched James Herbert's career. With a foreword by Neil Gaiman, author of Norse Mythology. It was only when the bones of the first devoured victims were discovered that the true nature and power of these swarming black creatures with their razor sharp teeth and the taste for human blood began to be realized by a panic-stricken city. For millions of years man and rats had been natural enemies. But now for the first time – suddenly, shockingly, horribly – the balance of power had shifted.
