Een leuk koppel verhuisd van de drukke stad naar een prachtige cottage op het Engelse platteland. Het sfeertje deed me denken aan de tv serie midsomer murder (voordat er in de aflevering een moord wordt gepleegd). Het huis lijkt een weldadig helend effect te hebben. Er lopen massa's tamme dieren rond het huis. Op een klein duister sfeertje na wat je toch op je hoede laat zijn was het een heerlijk knus verhaal.

Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know! boring cult action. it did not agree with me and i found it be over-obvious, eye-rolling. perhaps i just don't like reading about creepy cults. i kept hoping that they would be a minor part, but oh no, it's major. Francis, Clare; Upton, Ondine, eds. (1996). A Feast of Stories. London: Macmillan Publishers. ISBN 978-0-333-65340-1. The story wasn't as eerie as I remember, nothing goes bump in the night, not even when reading it at night in the middle of the woods. At its core, it is a story about good and evil and how they balance each-other out in the world. The character of Mycroft and its followers might have been about sects in the 80's, it is about denial of science in general - a theme that remains very actual today.I totally saw everything described in this book in great detail. Herbert captured the perfect description of a magic cottage deep in the woods. I expected more things to occur inside and around the cottage and towards the end, I was just left with a wanting. Toen ik de cover en titel zag trok dit boek gelijk mijn aandacht. Dit moet wel een hele vette horror zijn dacht ik. Eenmaal halverwege het boek was ik nog steeds niks engs tegengekomen. In tegendeel het was een heerlijk cozy en magisch verhaal. Another 70's horror. Like many I've read this one is just fine, with a few elements that really stand out. I like the way this plays with the haunted house concept, going in directions you really don't expect. The cult stuff didn't come together the way I would have liked, though. a b Plint, Alec (21 March 2013). "20 things you didn't know about James Herbert". The Daily Telegraph. London .
