The Rats (1974) is a horror novel by British writer James Herbert. This was Herbert's first novel and included graphic depictions of death and mutilation. A film adaptation was made in 1982, called Deadly Eyes. A 1985 adventure game for the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum based on the book was published by Hodder & Stoughton Ltd and produced by GXT (Five Ways Software). The Rats was followed by three sequels, Lair (1979), Domain (1984) and The City (1993) (the last one was a graphic novel). All three books were sold as a trilogy and were very well received by the public and horror fans.

  • Las ratas (The Rats en inglés), también traducida como La invasión de las ratas es la primera novela literaria de terror publicada por James Herbert en 1974. Inicialmente, Herbert mandó el manuscrito a seis editoriales, de las cuales respondieron tres interesándose en la obra, aunque dos ellas acabaron rechazándola. Finalmente, la editorial que decidió apostar por la novela, agotó en apenas tres semanas la primera tirada de 100.000 ejemplares. Vendió más de un millón de ejemplares en el Reino Unido, consagrándolo como autor del género de terror y uno de los más vendidos, manteniendo su posición desde la publicación de esta novela. Sin embargo, nunca llegó a número 1, posiblemente debido al extremo nivel de violencia del mismo,​ según las especulaciones de la crítica y el propio autor. A e (es)
