When four old University friends set off into the Scandinavian wilderness of the Arctic Circle, they aim to briefly escape the problems of their lives and reconnect with one another. But when Luke, the only man still single and living a precarious existence, finds he has little left in common with his well-heeled friends, tensions rise. With limited experience between them, a shortcut meant to ease their hike turns into a nightmare scenario that could cost them their lives.

Once every year, Scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a weekend camping trip - a tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story around a roaring bonfre. The boys are a tight-knit crew. There’s Kent, one of the most popular kids in school; Ephraim and Max, also well-liked and easygoing; then there’s Newt the nerd and Shelley the odd duck. For the most part, they all get along and are happy to be there - which makes Scoutmaster Tim’s job a little easier.

Derelictions are horror stories told in ways you may not have encountered before. Something is missing from the silent places and worlds inside these stories. Something has been removed, taken flight, or been destroyed. Us. Derelictions are weird tales that tell of aftermaths and of new and liminal places. Each location has witnessed catastrophe, infernal visitations, or unearthly transformations. But across these landscapes of murder, genocide and invasion, crucial evidence remains.

Wounds is a confounding, strange, and utterly entrancing collection of six stories, including one new novella from Shirley Jackson Award-winning author Nathan Ballingrud. From the eerie dread descending upon a New Orleans dive bartender after a cell phone is left behind in a rollicking bar fight in The Visible Filth to the search for the map of hell in “The Butcher’s Table”, Ballingrud’s beautifully crafted stories are riveting in their quietly terrifying depictions of the murky line between the known and the unknown.

Frightening in a deeper way
The diversity of voice in this collection is fascinating. The narrator changes along with the voice of each piece. Not scary in a gory way, but in a deeper way. I related to, and was frightened of, the monsters in a way that crept into my dreams. I want more from this author.

Fantastic writing, wrong voice for narrator
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
possibly, they would have to be someone who can get past the narration
What was one of the most memorable moments of Some Will Not Sleep?
Pigface Thing is a solid story and the end took me quite by surprise.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
David Stifel seems to be a narrator of choice for Lovecraftian works. He has a particular style and delivery that works for the true dated Lovecraft work. He doesn't have the ability to do a wide range of accents or genders or ages, and I think he is the absolute wrong choice to voice a primarily British and mid 20s or younger selection of 1st person characters. He tries, and I like his work in other stories, but his accents take away from the stories and are detracting when he attempts them. He just doesn't fit properly. If you can look (listen?) past them then the stories are really quite varied and well crafted.
Who was the most memorable character of Some Will Not Sleep and why?
Doll Hands is a very interesting character in a very interesting world.
Any additional comments?
This is a very good selection of stories, yet a poor choice in narrator.

Terrible!
What an extremely convoluted, boring, pg rated horror, and a whole bunch of talking about irrelevant random crap of a book! What was the author thinking when he wrote this mess? It seems like he tried to hard to be a Edgar Allen poe, H G wells, H. P Lovecraft style of an author instead of staying in his own lane! The stories made no sense most of the time and it sounded like a bunch of babbling from random characters in every story. Most of it was confusing because he went out of his way to be way too wordy just to describe the simplest things. Also the stories wasn't even close to being horror based at all. Because the author wold tell the readers in detail about 20 different irrelevant items instead of focusing on the subject at hand and then the story is just over. In one of the stories I couldn't tell if he was trying to describe the perpetrators as zombies, vampires, or just a bunch of mentally challenged folks who created a random tribe just for getting bit by someone. Yeah it's that stupid, so don't even think too hard about how ridiculous that sounds or even bother reading this garbage!

Oh my goodness!
I listened to the introduction of this book and was disappointed that an American narrator was chosen to read these stories by a British author.
However, this was nothing compared to the horror when the narrator attempted a British accent in the first story. I’ve never heard anything so terrible in my life! I could bear it for about 30 seconds and then had to turn it off. Such a shame as I really like Adam Nevill, but I won’t be able to listen to this book.

Very Bad Choice of Narrator
I have to join in with the criticism of the narrator, he was a very bad choice for these stories. And why an American for stories that are mostly based in Britain or Europe? A shame, because Adam Nevill is a good writer of short stories,

An American tries a British accent for 10 hours
Publisher: "Can you do an English accent?"
Narrator: "Err...sure."
Publisher: "You've got the job."
When I imagine the absurd chain of events which led to this horrendous recording, I shiver from fright. What ignorance of reality must one possess to listen to the narrator shamble his way through the book and accept it as good enough for public consumption?
There are few ways to ruin Adam Nevill's storytelling but the narrator found one. It's a crying shame that Audible don't offer credit refunds as there's no way I'll ever be able to finish this and, given how fond I am of Nevill's second collection - Hasty for the Dark, I find this quite sad.
I would not recommend this audiobook. But I will recommend Adam Nevill's books time and time again.

Not scary
Would you try another book written by Adam Nevill or narrated by David Stifel?
I couldn't even finish this book, so no.
What was most disappointing about Adam Nevill’s story?
I was looking for something a little bit more engaging.
Who might you have cast as narrator instead of David Stifel?
I don't know. But he read this so monotone.
You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?
I stopped listening after three or four stories.

not with this narrator

A mixed bag
Started off terrible but it ended on a high. I'd recommend you skip the first few, maybe start from doll hands and read to the end.
Where Angels Come In
2 stars! It was a typical scary house story where people have been known to disappear when they go inside it and there's always that one survivor that lived to tell their tale. Been there, done that.
The Original Occupant
3 stars - I enjoyed the descriptions in this one. Felt like I was there but again a story that's been done before. Very predictable.
Mother's Milk
2 stars - very weird and disgusting. I was confused about the characters as I couldn't tell if they were human or not. Maybe that's what the author intended but the story was just weird. Unique but weird for me.
Yellow Teeth
1 STAR! Absolutely vile and disgusting. Not my kind of story. I'm sure some people would have enjoyed it but it really was not my cup of tea at all.
Pig Thing
2 stars - could have been a promising story but towards the end it just lost direction and made no sense to me.
What God Hath Wrought?
2 stars - It was a badly done biblical apocalyptic type story. It felt like it was going in that direction but then it was like that was happening and everyone except a few were still going about their daily lives.
Doll Hands
3 stars - Creative dystopia like story. I enjoyed it and the author did the same thing like mothers milk where you couldn't tell if the characters were human or not and it worked here, got me thinking about the story even after I finished it. The ending was chilling too.
To Forget and Be Forgotten
2 stars - Like the title. Its a story that does not stay in your mind even after you've read it. Bland and boring. A voluntarily recluse individual goes to work at a place with weirdos.
The Ancestors
5 STARS! - My favorite in the whole book. Its like the grudge/the ring meets toy story! Looool. Super fun and exciting the whole way through.
The Age of Entitlement
3 stars - More of a thriller. Was a good story and could be a good stand alone one if done right.
Florrie
3 stars! - It was a bit weird, the main character moved into an old house that had the furniture of the old occupants and the effect it had on the new character. it started off well but then went on a tangent.

Brilliant Collection
Some Will Not Sleep was Adam Nevill's collection of short stories that I listened to, and it's a brilliant, gripping, well written and very eerie collection of horror stories, many of which mix into new weird. Brilliantly written, - I've noticed some complain about the narrator - in all honesty his voice grew on me. I've listened to this collection and other two - Hasty For the Dark and Wyrd and Other Derelictions quite a few times and will do so many more

I didn’t find this either scary or overly suspenseful, and I had no trouble sleeping at all. The epilogue went some way towards explaining the stories but not enough to provide any revelations. If you’re looking for a scare and suspense I would say look on.
