Night & Day by John Connolly
Sunday Times number one bestselling author John Connolly - "one of the best thriller writers we have" (Harlan Coben, #1 New York Times bestselling author) - returns with a shivery collection of supernatural tales.
Beautifully written short stories. . written with a gentle humour and almost a reverence for books and their characters . . . These are the stories where the strange becomes acceptable and though the hairs on the back of one's neck may be prickling; the brain is prepared to countenance what it perceives * Live & Deadly *
The eclectic mix of stories . . . blends traditional spooky horror and supernatural sci-fi Irish Examiner * Irish Examiner *
Nine stories which are . . . masterclasses of the form . . . John Connolly is Ireland's Richard Matheson and the foremost purveyor of the genre mash-up, but as Horror Express demonstrates, he has a flair for biographies, too * Starburst Magazine *
Captivating * Afterword *
John Connolly doesn't often write short stories - just two collections in a 30-plus year writing career - but when he does, he proves he is a master of the genre * Irish Independent *
One of the tests of a good short story . . . is if it leaves the reader wishing the writer had gone the whole hog and made a novel of it. Such feeling is engendered several times in this third volume of shorter (mostly) fiction from Dubliner John Connolly, the man behind the marvellous Charlie Parker supernatural detective series . . . A gifted author who seems able to turn his hand in any direction, and this entertaining collection will more than do to be going on with while we await the next Parker adventure * The Irish Times *
