Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pulp horror at its most stupidly entertaining!
Review: Littered with grammar and spelling mistakes, but overlook this and you can have hours of fun with this one. Giant crabs once again attack England, creating havoc and tearing people apart with their pincers! I get the feeling this was written with teenage readers in mind but even if you`re an adult(!) you will have a whale of a time. The characters are right out of a Grade Z sci-fi film of the 1950s, the story is rather predictable but nonetheless great fun and the gory scenes are somewhat silly. Great for a beach read, but watch out for those crabs! Click-click-clickety-click!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Might be worth a look
Review: The giant crabs who attacked the coastlines in the series which began with the superb 'Night of the Crabs' are back. But this time they are dying due to cancer caused by an underwater nuclear explosion, and as such are determined for revenge on the human race who caused their mutation.

This is the last of Guy N.Smith's series of giant crabs novels and is unfortunately also the least inspiring, comes across as little more than 'another giant crab book'. There are a few remorable scenes, but it has a wearyness about it, as though the author just wanted to get the series finished and write something else.

If you've already read 'Night of the Crabs' then read 'Killer Crabs' and 'Origin of the Crabs', which are the best sequels. 'Crabs Moon' is also worthwhile reading. 'Rampage' might prove entertaining to fans of the giant crabs, but don't expect anything remarkably new or different.
