A review by bigbookgeek
Domain by James Herbert

3.0

When I first heard of Domain, I had very high hopes. I mean, it is part of the Rats series, AND takes place post nuclear holocaust! Several years back, I tried reading this and couldn't get into it, so gave up. I tried again (this time via audiobook), and while I wasn't super pleased, I found it at least tolerable. Sadly, it comes in as a weak finale to the Rats trilogy. I think the issue is the fact that so much time and energy was spent on the horrors of the nuclear bombs destroying London, that the rats were a creepy side story. All in all, the book was full of action, and had some great gory rat scenes, but for me, it fell short of the effect the first two books had.
