What to expect

Following the highly acclaimed Nocturnes and Night Music, Night & Day is filled with eerie surprises and dark delights.

Night & Day takes us from the dusty shelves of an uncanny library filled with fictional characters to a bunker deep beneath the earth where scientists seek revenge on old Nazis, from an English marsh haunted by a mother and her son to a country house where a grieving widower finds comfort in a most unlikely source.

Concluding with the author's account of how an obscure horror film brought him closer to his lost father, and how nostalgia can help through our hardest times, this is a collection that will move, entertain, and keep you reading late into the night.

Critics Review

The eclectic mix of stories . . . blends traditional spooky horror and supernatural sci-fi
Irish Examiner
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
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
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
