Night of the Crabs (Crabs Series)

Product Information

I’d have to see ’em blown to smithereens with my own eyes before I’d believe they’re not invincible. The death, destruction, and utter mayhem caused by the sudden invading crab army is quite frankly superb! Like with the majority of Smith's other novels, an abundance of action and twists to the storyline are somehow crammed into these few pages.

Book Review: Night of the Crabs By Guy N. Smith

The rats kill people in a variety of gruesome ways, whereas the crabs pretty much just bite their legs off and leave blood pumping from the ragged stumps. The tale begins when Professor Cliff Davenport, marine biologist and an all round stand-up guy, travels to a small piece of land known as Shell Island on the Welsh coast, to investigate the strange disappearance of his nephew Ian Wright and Wright’s fiancée Julie Coles. It is a gross literary injustice that this book is not on the list of 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die.Although we still have this business, writing came along and this proved to be the vehicle which gave me my freedom. Smith knows the kind of book he is writing and keeps the pace brisk by wasting no time on minutia like plot, character development or dialogue. Night of the Crabs is a B-monster-movie, with an obligatory dose of 70s soft porn (which is really pretty mild compared to porn today — I mean, 50 Shades of Gray? His fanbase was global and, in particular, he had a large following from Poland, where over 35 of his novels were translated and published in the early 1990s. Films can pull off the “so bad it’s good” thing much more easily because they require so little effort from the audience.

Alergii nie dostałam - aż tak tragicznie moje spotkanie z “Krabami” się nie skończyło, więc w przyszłości jeszcze zaryzykuję posmakowania kolejnych części skorupiaków, ale nastąpi to zdecydowanie później niż wcześniej. An all out war ensues, with the monstrous crustaceans now swarming onto the helpless community of Shell Island. At no point does Smith take his foot off the accelerator from the very moment the crabs first take to the shore. Davenport is subsequently released by the military and quickly meets up with Pat Benson, another guest at the hotel Davenport is currently lodging at. Origin’ ends exactly where `Night’ takes off, bringing together a seamless and tight storyline to the crabs series as a whole.Our four children, Rowan, Tara, Gavin and Angus have all moved away from home but they visit on a regular basis. The story also pulls in a mysterious military base populated with sinister spy types and throws in some love interest for Cliff in the form of Pat. The novel is an easy read, maybe eighth grade reading level, has plenty of action, a little romance with some fairly graphic sex, and a welcome pulp fiction sensibility. A spine chilling tale from a master of horror In a small Welsh town, a group of children, dressed for Halloween, gather outside the shabby house of the most feared and despised resident, Edward Kroll. Spawning 11 sequels, the latest of which was published in 2019, the series chronicles invasions of various areas of the British coastline by giant man-eating crabs.
