Review: Fascinating and realistic character - When freelance photographer Joe Creed sets out to capture a series of photos at the funeral of a famous actress, he gets the chance to take a few snaps of a strange old man at the graveside. But developing the pictures leads him into a mystery - one he can't easily explain. Learning the name of his unwitting subject and what it could mean if turns out to be true, only adds inconceivable reasoning to an already unsettling tale. With the help of an attractive ally, Creed sets out to discover just what the hell is going on. Sometimes the very thing that grabs a reader's attention (in terms of an author's style), is the same thing that can get a little annoying after a while - similar scenarios, use of language etc. And when that happens, sometimes it's best to just leave that particular writer alone for a while and spread your readery wings further afield. I first got into James Herbert's books in the late Seventies, when horror novels were coming back into fashion. With books like 'The Rats', 'The Fog' and 'The Dark', I found stories that had just the right amount of blood, guts and scary stuff to keep me interested for several years. Nevertheless, as I grew (perhaps) a little too familiar with the plots, other authors caught my attention and I veered away from Britain's most prolific horror writer. Now, with a suitable gap of twenty-odd years, I'm getting back to where my interest in the genre started. Joe Creed is a fascinating and realistic character and his chaotic exploits kept me eagerly turning the pages as the plot developed arms, legs and devilish tails, but I did find the author's inclination to comment on the story as it went along a little irritating. So while I'm more than happy to give the book five stars for its entertainment value alone, I don't think this is James Herbert's best work - it doesn't quite capture the audacity and excitement of his early writing and the unexpected twists are less twisty and not so unexpected. Nonetheless, this novel did renew my interest and those early books will, I'm sure, stand up to another look, so I'll be returning to James Herbert again soon - The Rats are coming... Review: That perfect shot. - Well this one was a bit of a surprise. Read the synopsis and thought it looked ok at best. Being a photographer myself and loving anything paranormal imagine my surprise when not even a chapter in, we find our unlikely hero (if you can call him that) follows the same career path as me and see him delve into an underworld of supernatural creatures on an adventure that has to be finely balanced and kept secret from his work life. A pretty good story throughout, it's a bit of a rollercoaster ride and some parts I had to go over a couple of times to make sure I was following the story. The end could have been a bit stronger and it ended a bit abrupt for my liking, not quite the huge finale I was hoping for but all in all a bloody good read and there's a nice little twist in there for good measure....all for 99p a steal of demonic proportions. I would seriously recommend this book to any James Herbert fan or fan of supernatural horror. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 169,975 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 260 in Ghost Horror 507 in Horror Occult & Supernatural 563 in Horror Thrillers | | Customer reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (863) | | Dimensions | 12.7 x 2.79 x 20.32 cm | | Edition | Main Market | | ISBN-10 | 0330522655 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0330522656 | | Item weight | 281 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 400 pages | | Publication date | 8 Nov. 2012 | | Publisher | Pan | | Reading age | 18 years and up | ## Images ![Creed - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+4y11PqeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fascinating and realistic character *by S***E on 31 December 2016* When freelance photographer Joe Creed sets out to capture a series of photos at the funeral of a famous actress, he gets the chance to take a few snaps of a strange old man at the graveside.
