In 2010, he was made the Grand Master of Horror by the World Horror Convention and was also awarded an OBE by the Queen for services to literature. His final novel was Ash. James Herbert died in March 2013.
"The Rats is splatterpunk deluxe. Not only great, gory fun but a prime example of what was once called ""the British nasty."" I loved it then, love it still -- Stephen King Lean, mean, and nasty as punk, The Rats are here! Capable of inciting riots and causing bloodshed -- Grady Hendrix, author of <i>How to Sell a Haunted House</i> A seminal work from a king of British horror -- Adam Nevill, author of <i>The Ritual</i> The effectiveness of the gruesome set pieces and brilliant finale are all its own -- <i>The Sunday Times</i> With The Rats, Herbert established himself as a master of the sort of apocalyptic horror that's so popular today -- <i>The Guardian</i> The Rats is a delightfully gory James Herbert classic -- <i>SciFiWard</i>"
