Slugs

Rating:
Summary: Killer slugs? You've got to be taking the proverbial.
Review: Apparently Shaun Hutson's writing career started when, after reading a horror paperback called 'Night of the Crabs'(5 stars), thought he could do better.

'Slugs' tries so hard to be gory and shocking, but the thought of killer slugs biting and attacking people is just too comical to be taken seriously. Alright, so slugs can be considered disgusting, but they're hardly terrifying. The book does manage to be fairly entertaining, however, and should provide for lovers of gore and repulsiveness. Lovers of creepy and suspenceful mutated-animal horror stories, on the other hand, would be better off finding a copy of 'Night of the Crabs'.

Summary: Beware!
Review: If you don't mind stearing clear of the little suckers (no pun intended) for the rest of your days then, by all means, read this book. What a master of the creepy.

Rating:
Summary: One great horror novel!
Review: Now, mind you, this is one disgusting book. But it's so much fun and filled with so much energy that you just can't put it down! The characters are completely alive (well, except when they're dead), and you will care about them so much that you'll forget they're actually fighting man-eating slugs. Well worth whatever price you can pay for it. The book is only hamperred by American editors trying to take out any British-isms from the text, and only catching half of them. (Now if only I could find a copy of Slugs II: Breeding Ground.

Rating:
Summary: Monsters of the garden variety.
Review: The small town of Merton is overrun with carnivorous slugs in yet another entry in the mutated pest genre created by James Herbert's classic novel The Rats. Shaun Hutson heaps on the grue and keeps the pace lightning fast, so the strong stomached reader can expect to finish the book in less that a day or two. Not high literature, but passable entertainment with quite a nasty edge.

Summary: A good Read
Review: This book was very good. Once you have turned the first page you are unable to put it down. I recommend this book to any of his fans(those without a weak stomach). Any other Shaun Hutson fans please send me an e-mail.
