Hasty for the Dark Selected Horrors
Author: Adam Nevill

These selected terrors range from the speculative to supernatural horror, encompass the infernal and the occult, and include stories inspired by H. P. Lovecraft, Robert Aickman and Ramsey Campbell.Hasty for the Dark is the second short story collection from the award-winning and widely appreciated British writer of horror fiction, Adam L. G. Nev... more »ill. The author's best horror stories from 2009 to 2015 are collected here for the first time.The hardest journeys in life and death are taken underground.No blackmail is as ghastly as extortion from angels.A swift reckoning often travels in handheld luggage.Once considered inhumane and now derelict, this zoo may not be as empty as assumed.A bad marriage, a killer couple, and part of a wider movement.No sign of life aboard an abandoned freighter, but what is left below deck tells a strange story.The origin of our species is not what we think.In destitution, the future for revolution and mass murder is so bright.Your memories may not be your own, and your life nothing more than a ritual that will compel you to perform an atrocity . . .Praise for the author's first collection of horror stories, Some Will Not Sleep: Selected Horrors "Great storytelling, but across a wider palate and range of styles than you might have expected, leading to some delightfully unexpected visions and hellscapes." Gingernuts of Horror"There is not one single tale which feels less than the others, none which seem to be mere 'filler'. They are beautifully crafted, original and complete works which nevertheless fit well together as arranged by the author." This is Horror"In 'Some Will Not Sleep' nothing is sacred, nothing is safe, and goodness me, if you like horror fiction you're going to absolutely love every damn minute." Pop MythologyPraise for Adam Nevill's horror novels: "Adam Nevill is a spine-chiller in the classic tradition, a writer who draws you in from the world of the familiar, eases you into the world of terror, and then locks the door behind you." Michael Koryta, NYT Bestselling author"Modern storytelling ... and old school terror. Very scary, highly recommended" - Jonathan Maberry, NYT bestselling author"One of the most subtle and powerful writers of dark fiction - a unique voice" - Michael Marshall Smith, NYT Bestselling author)

"Chilling, disorienting, and deeply creepy" - Scott Smith (author of 'The Ruins' on 'House of Small Shadows')

"Nevill is fast becoming Britain's answer to Stephen King" - Guardian"He has the rare ability to craft a nebulous atmosphere of terror, as well as to capture cinematic slasherpunk in the written word. Both are incredibly rare talents." Pornokitsch"The sense of dread is immediate, with the reader's sense of foreboding increasing with every new page." Irish Examiner"Readers will lose all hope of peaceful, undisturbed sleep. Highly recommended." Library Journal - Starred Review"Nevill's talent for horror resonates ominously in every scene, almost as if the theme from Jaws echoes when a page is turned." Kirkus
