Thirteen voices. Thirteen storeys. One dinner party to die for.

An innovative 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?

Avis de la critique

The book works both as a collection of inventive horror stories and as a cohesive novel, building to a nerve-jangling finale that reveals the shocking events at the party.
A modern horror classic from one of the most exciting writers in the field today.
Thirteen Storeys is an excellent horror [...] everyone will find something creepy in Banyan Court.
Thrilling, chilling and thoroughly entertaining
Sims really has created an innovative novel where everything falls into place within its thrilling climax.
A beautifully written contemporary horror novel that I know for sure will leave its mark on me. I don't remember reading anything like this before and it was an absolute delight.
A book that takes old traditions and gives them a contemporary spin. Happy Halloween, all.
An excellent portmanteau novel. It's an ultra modern take on the haunted house story while each tale mixes in different subgenre flavours from techno-fear and shifting architecture to creepy kids and beyond, all building to a joined up climax that's pleasingly violent and gross.
This is an astonishing debut from Jonathan Sims. A wonderful new twist on an age-old genre. 5 out of 5.

A great collection of urban horror stories, strung together by a theme of the modern and common terrors most of us are familiar with but try to tune out. The different performances are a pleasure to listen to and add a lot of character to their stories and the finale. My only small gripe would be with said finale, which succeeds in delivering catharsis but destroys most of the ambiguity and mystery the previous vignettes have successfully built up. Although, this is hardly a deal breaker and the book is still very much worth listening to.

P.S Fans of the Magnus Archive will feel right at home.

Capitalist Horror Stories

Vengeful spirits, weird dreams and strange obsessions plague the tenants of Banyan Court.
A delightful soft horror experience. The audio performances are stellar and made me enjoy it all even more.

This book has just about everything I could have wished for: Sometines scary, sometimes gory horror, casually queer caracters, criticism of capitalism and a satisfying ending, plus a cast of great and really varied voice actors. I really enjoyed it and will go now to shout praise for it off all the rooftops available to me!

Gory horror and yet kind of wholesome

The seperate stories are all good on their own but they get even better once woven together.
I personally love the kind of horror that starts out subtle and just a little uncanny so i obviously loved this. Already read the book but i honestly felt the need to listen to Jonny Sims playing an unlikeble man soooooo, yeah. Only reason i got the audiobook.
I can only recommend the story :)

Capitalism is the real horror

...I had to listen to this book from Jonathan Sims! And it’s been everything I hoped for and more! From his podcast „The Magnus Archives“ I already knew, that he is fantastic in creating existential fears is his stories. In this book he takes that skill and manifests the horrors of capitalism in ways that are relatable and repulsive at the same time! Well done!

As a fan of The Magnus Archives...
