Thirteen Storeys

By Jonathan Sims

A haunted house tour-de-force from the creator of THE MAGNUS ARCHIVES podcast. GOING UP? A dinner party is held in the penthouse of a multimillion-pound development. All the guests are strangers - even to their host, the billionaire owner of the building. None of them know why they were selected to receive his invitation. Whether privileged or deprived, they share only one thing in common - they've all experienced a shocking disturbance within the building's walls. By the end of the night, their host is dead, and none of the guests will say what happened. His death has remained one of the biggest unsolved mysteries - until now. But are you ready for their stories? * * * * * * * * * * 'A modern horror classic' Starburst Magazine 'Astonishing' SFX 'Nerve-jangling' Guardian 'A wonderfully creepy climax, hitting that perfect spot of uncanny horror' Grimdark Magazine 'Steals your sleep, not only because it's such a page turner but it is very very creepy' NetGalley reviewer 'Chilling and so creepy' NetGalley reviewer 'This book literally has it all: simply faultless' NetGalley reviewer

I am a fan of the podcast The Magnus Archives, so I was excited to delve into this book. I was not disappointed. I listened to the audiobook version because I love the sound of Jonny’s voice. I was surprised to find that each “storey” is narrated by a different actor. Characters include a vindictive smart home, a little girl’s dangerously mischievous imaginary friend, and a reclusive building owner. In addition to being an entertaining work of narrative fiction, the book addresses issues of class discrimination and the value of human life. I was hesitant to give it a 10 rating because I usually reserve that for classic masterpieces, but it was so enjoyable that I want to support this author and encourage others to read his books.
