Nevill writes about the oppressiveness of reality. It's easy to recognise his characters as parts of ourselves. Their experiences are universal, and the way the horror plays out almost feels like a representation of our own, very human insecurities. With stories written in homage to writers who have inspired him, Nevill nonetheless brings his own unique style. With descriptive, flowing prose it's easy to get caught up in his characters, their sense of dislocation, their alienation and their loneliness.
