Customer Reviews

Neo-Nazis attempt to literally resurrect evil of the Reich.

James Bond meets The Exorcist? So it seems in this typically blood soaked good versus evil story revolving around Neo-Nazi Occultists attempting to literally resurrect the leaders of the Third Reich. More gruesome fun from James Herbert that won't displease his fans, of which I am one.

Great book from what I remember. Classic 80's horror.

Mancow needs a copy. Send him one if you can find it. He Has been talking about the legend. I doubt he has read this book. It addresses all he talks about when speaking of the Spear.

One of the best books I have ever read!!

I used to always read Stephen King novels, my father suggested this book when the library had run out of new Stephen King books for me to read. The Spear was excellent, I rate it second only to The Eye of the Dragon by Stepehn King, which is nearly the best damn book I have ever read. The Spear is about Adolf Hitler, Lenin and other German figures. It was so long since I read it, it is hard to remember, I want to read it again. A really good book can never be boring, no matter how many times you read it. I live in the country and it is hard to find new books, so I end up reading the ones that I have a few times over. It is amazing how much you miss, little hints in the story that make it all the more interesting. You really get to know the characters.
