About this audiobook
It came like a malignant shadow with seductive promises of power. And somewhere in the night. . . a small girl smiled as her mother burned . . . asylum inmates slaughtered their attendants . . . in slimy tunnels once-human creatures gathered.
In James Herbert's The Dark, madness rages as the lights begin to fade and humanity is attacked by an ancient, unstoppable evil . . .

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The poor audio quality in the latter half of the audiobook further ruined an already dull read.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This was definitely not one of Herberts best horror books of his early career. I thought it was a lot scarier when I read the physical book instead of listening to it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Good book. Nice and creepy.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Some of the imagery in this book is truly terrifying. A good horror read
