Somewhere on the coast of England, Neverbury is a quaint little seaside town with the kind of problems that a lot of quaint little English seaside towns have these days… demons, serial killers, immortals, thieves, time travellers, ghosts, vampires, haunted houses, witches, an extraordinarily strident village council, and monsters.

There are the gods above and the great thing below… praise them all.

Review

Neverbury by Chris Lynch is an exceptionally well-written book of short stories set in the fictional town of Neverbury.

First off, the world-building of the town itself is phenomenal, and I absolutely loved it. Secondly, the stories are all so good that it was hard to pick a favourite; each one had something different to offer. The writing style of the author is great, and it resonated well with me, which, for me, is one of the most important things when it comes to dark or horror stories. Each and every story had a great flow, and the pacing and tension were simply perfect.

This book was more like an experience, and I’d definitely recommend it to all fantasy and horror fans, as this book has so much to offer.

Two siblings. One manor. One Entity. Who will survive?
When Leela Jamwal returns to her ancestral home tucked along the monsoon-drenched Konkan coast, she believes she’s coming back to grieve, to regroup, and to protect her younger brother. But the Manor—sprawling, decaying, and watchful—has been waiting far longer than that.
Unspoken tragedies haunt every corridor. Mirrors move. Walls hum. And Leela begins to dream of a girl no one remembers—except the house.
What begins as mourning quickly becomes unravelling as Leela uncovers the dark legacy of her bloodline: a lineage bound to an ancient force known only as the Widow. A force that demands obedience, sacrifice, and silence. And Leela is the next in line.
As time fractures and the Manor tightens its grip, she must confront a choice older than herself: her brother, her unborn child, or herself.
Because in this house, you don’t inherit the curse. You are the curse.
