|
 | It by Stephen King
Buy used from: £0.01 Kings Finest in my opinion. Genuinely frightening, with lead characters you actually care about and a seamless switching of time periods. Rivetting to the gruesome end.
|
 | Last And First Men (S.F. Masterworks) by Olaf Stapledon
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.99 Truly breathtaking. A history of things to come, considering it was written so long ago, frighteningly perceptive and plausible.
|
 | Sphere by Michael Crichton

|
 | Phantoms by Dean Koontz
Buy new: £5.99 / Used from: £0.01 Dark, horrifying, edge of the seat stuff. Darker than a lot of Kings novels.
|
 | Star Maker (S.F. Masterworks) by Olaf Stapledon
Buy new: £4.48 / Used from: £2.10 Unbelievably vast imagination. Still taking it all in years since reading it. No book can ever hope to come close to the scope of this.
|
 | The Forever War (S.F. Masterworks) by Joe Haldeman

|
 | The Labyrinth, The (Aliens) by Stephani Perry
Buy used from: £0.01 Only one of the Alien/Predator books I have read so far that I really enjoyed. Captures the paranoia of the films so well.
|
 | The Long Walk by Stephen King
Buy new: £4.78 / Used from: £1.37 Mentally gruelling as I suspect it intended to be. Starts off innocently enough, and as the deadly trek continues the feeling of complete despair for the characters becomes more apparent.
|
