Best-selling author James Herbert who wrote the horror classic The Rats, has died aged 69.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-21870413 03-20-2013 11:42 AMjon10gI can't believe he has passed away. He was too young. I have just got tickets to see him at the Liverpool Literary Festival. Him and King were the ones that got me reading in the early seventies. 03-20-2013 01:57 PMCoulrophobiaVery sad my condolences to the family, and the fans. 03-20-2013 02:53 PMTito_VillaI'm gutted, I really am, he was such a down to earth guy who had time for anyone. 03-20-2013 03:47 PMClackeJust heard about his death. I'm stunned. So sad. It was his books that sparked my interest in horror in the 70's, even before Stephen King.
R.I.P. James. 03-20-2013 03:52 PMBev VincentMet him at WHC in Brighton a couple of years ago and got him to sign my Dark Dreamers. He was charming. Drank absinthe as he signed. I thought he would have made a great classic Doctor Who. 03-20-2013 04:06 PMBriceWow! I wasn't expecting that when I clicked this thread. So sad! 03-21-2013 05:34 AMThe Library PolicemanGutted at this news. Met him as recently as last September and he was a lovely, warm human being who had time for every fan that night.
RIP. Mr Herbert. A British horror legend. 03-30-2013 06:32 AMTito_Villa2 books that are very special to me ...
