Praise for Will Storr Versus the Supernatural

'Funny, exciting and strangely haunting'

Jon Ronson

'A really terrific read. I devoured it in a couple of days'

Joe Cornish (Adam & Joe)

'A rip-roaring yarn that will have you genuinely questioning your beliefs.”

The Guardian

'A very amusing way to scare yourself stupid'

Independent on Sunday

‘A fun, fascinating and, at times, frightening read’

Publishers Weekly (Starred review)

REVIEWS

‘Riveting... Storr entices the readers with luscious descriptions of food while offering a grim, destructive vision of a brutal, personality-driven profession.’

Starred review, Publishers Weekly

'A fine, well crafted debut... this is painless entertainment, one of many reasons to sing it’s praises’.

The Independent

‘Max Mann is one of the most compellingly repulsive villains in recent fiction and I rooted for his whipping-boy turned nemesis, Killian Lone, on every page. This is a pitch-dark, highly original fable about family, ambition and the redemptive power of cooking. By turns enchanting and grotesque, I couldn’t tear myself away from it.’

Erin Kelly

'Darkly imaginative and enjoyable.’

The Bookseller

‘An unusual Faustian-ish tale incorporating the cruel world of the 1980s super chef, nouvelle cuisine, a man with ambition and a dark family secret. It's Roald Dahl for grown-ups... Excellent.’ 4.5/5

Bookbag

‘The success of the novel lies in the amazingly complex characterisation of Killian.

Silverlock Book Reviews

REVIEWS

‘A searching, extraordinarily thoughtful account of what it means to believe anything’

Book of the Week, Salon

The Unpersaudables has a “subtle brilliance...”

Michael Shermer, The Wall Street Journal

Funny, serious, richly vivid. Read this book.’

5/5, The Daily Telegraph

‘Very valuable, and a great read to boot, this is investigative journalism of the highest order’

Book of the Week, The Independent

‘A humane and generous book . . . its insightful exploration of lives lived “beyond the facts” is to be celebrated’

The Sunday Telegraph

‘Storr can open chapters like a stage conjurer. He is a funny and companionable guide . . . [who] confounds expectations’

The Guardian

‘Incontrovertibly brilliant.’

Esquire

‘Brilliant’

Grazia

‘Utterly engrossing . . . The Heretics is an accessible and absolutely compelling read’

Daily Express

‘Astounding. Already a strong contender for my book of the year’

BBC Radio Oxford, Afternoon Book Club
