Read this when I was 11 years old. Total classic.

That is a wonderful cover for The Furies. Rather more exciting than the others. It's a pity that Roberts didn't give us any other John Wyndham/John Christopher-style disaster stories, given how enjoyable this one is. One of his obituaries said he wrote it as a sure fire cash generator, and when it failed to make him rich he didn't return to that style again.

I read it young and it left a lasting impression! |
