Few believed Professor Coldwell couldcommunicate 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.

MEDIA REVIEWS
From the half-glimpsed manifestations that haunt the entire book to the pure visceral horror of the climax,from the understated menace that lurks under passages of dialogue to the lyrical terror we experience elsewhere,Nevill the novelist displays an impressive range of skills and effectsIncredibly accomplished and with a really neat and original monster at the heart of the story. It's a feast worth savouring
