The Nest

Product Information

This book was first published in 1980 so it really has that 80s creature/monster film vibes which I adore so much. I love the characters. The pacing is also great. The audiobook is amazing. Yeah, it really gave me the creeps. Nominations Announced for 30th IFP Gotham Awards". The Gotham Film & Media Institute. November 12, 2020 . Retrieved October 22, 2022.

I wouldn't recommend the general horror fan to pay the crazy online prices for this, but anyone into the James Herbert/Guy N. Smith/Shaun Hutson-style critter novels, as well as those into the whole "trapped and hunted" theme, could certainly do worse than The Nest. Times, Los Angeles (24 March 2016).

"Canadian Screen Awards Announces 2021 Film Nominations". ET Canada. Archived from the original on March 30, 2021.The steady stream of blood, scenes of overtly graphic gore, and surprisingly good level of character development, make The Nest one of the better horror novels from the saturated 80's mass-market. An entrepreneur and his family begin to unravel after moving into an old country manor in England in the 1980s. If you like your novels complex with characters possessing major flaws that they cannot overcome, this is a book you will probably like. Otherwise, the constant churn may turn you off. Okay, so this isn't the "great American novel" but what it is is a lot of gross out laughter and chills, and a few hours of mindless entertainment. In these political times, who couldn't use that? I would have given this three stars based on the writing alone, but I added a half star and rounded it up to 4 total, because of the FUN factor!

Like characters in a Nancy Meyers or Richard Curtis film, they are vivid, animated and ultimately anodyne. Their grins are wry, their laughs are self-deprecating and their every other action seems perfectly matched to the conventions of people in books and movies. Every booking made at The Nest supports the work of the Community Sports Foundation. The charity helps thousands of people achieve their goals through sport every year.

Typically, I find flowery writing to be very off-putting, an attempt at poetry that comes off as pretension. The Nest definitely has that vibe, but something about reading horrible, gory deaths written in such an artsy way had me rolling on the floor. It often feels like the author is parodying high-brow literature, so I get the impression that Mr. Douglas knew what he was doing here.
