Title: so bad, it's almost scary
Product review: What was James Herbert thinking? This novel is part fantasy, part horror and with a chunk of soft porn thrown in as well. And none of it works. For a big book, there seems very little in it and you engage with none of the characters.Disabled guy goes to live in cottage, falls in love with fairy, battles bad witch. The end (except for a rather terrible and unlikely suggestion at the end where it went all sloppy and mentioned sick children and changing the world).James Herbert has been off his form for a while now and this is a clear step backwards. Best avoided.
