Few believed Professor Coldwell could communicate with spirits. But in Scotland's oldest university town something has passed from darkness into light. Now, the young are being haunted by night terrors and those who are visited disappear. This is certainly not a place for outsiders, especially at night. So what chance do a rootless musician and burned-out explorer have of surviving their entanglement with an ageless supernatural evil and the ruthless cult that worships it? A chilling occult thriller from award-winning author Adam Nevill, Banquet for the Damned is both a homage to the great age of British ghost stories and a pacey modern tale of Devil worship and witchcraft.

I can always rely on Adam Nevill's books to give me a few restless nights. “Banquet for the Damned” was no exception. Every creak and groan a house makes at night had me quaking under my duvet.
Nevill's writing is so descriptive it pulls the reader right in.
I have seen his work described as “too wordy”. I beg to differ. This man can do no wrong, apart from costing me some sleep.
