Why do we say put back when we really mean put forwards? :D :D :D

I have never read his books :shock: having said that I did get Ghosts of Sleath for Christmas, and I also have Once, which I will get round to reading one day :D

You'll have to share the crown with me then - I'm always having to go back & edit my posts - LOL. I spotted one I'd missed a month or so back just a moment ago, so I'll have to nip back & correct that one too. Evetually, all my posts will be typo free - LOL!

I loved both those books Clare, but I am a Herbert nut!

Others is one of my faves by Mr Herbert - but I love them all !

I've read four of his books, Once, Haunted, Ghosts Of Sleath and Magic Cottage.
I enjoyed them all and will definitely read more of his stuff as I have heard lots of good reviews on him.

Clare, Ghosts Of Sleath is my favourite so far :mrgreen:

Just starting this book! I'm quite excited as it's set in Devon (where I live!). :mrgreen: Does anyone know if Hollow Bay and the Devil's Cleave are fictional places, or do they actually exist? I just googled them, but all I got were references to this book, so I'm guessing they are fictional? :10_confused:

Has this book got anything to do with the book I am currently reading:- James Herbert - The Secret of Crickley Hall? I am a bit confused as I thought this was a stand alone book.

The original post is quite old.. the title may well have changed when published. :)

It seems they are one and the same book, so to avoid confusion, i've edited the title of the thread. :)

Ok, now I'm curious! :mrgreen: I could have sworn when I posted on this thread last night, the title was the same as the book I'm reading now - The Secret of Crickley Hall. What was the original title of the thread/book?

Just finished this one, and wasn't all that impressed. :roll: It started off well, but it just dragged on and on. It was utterly unoriginal - I kept waiting for a great twist, but there wasn't one. :roll: Boring, boring, boring! :motz:
