About this listen

Somewhere on the coast of England, Neverbury a little quaint seaside town with the kind of problems that a lot of quaint little English seaside towns have these days...demons, serial killers, immortals, thieves, time travellers, ghosts, vampires, haunted houses, witches, an extraordinarily strident village council, and monsters.

Welcome to Neverbury is a collection of interconnected short stories set in the fictional town of Neverbury, perfect for fans of Black Mirror, Stranger Things, or Inside No. 9.

I loved these short stories, great to dip in and out of. You can really picture the scene, and the narration was great. Loved the humour in it too. Loved the unexpected twists, never knew what to expect next! Neverbury sounds like a fascinating place.

Great stories, loved the twists and narration.

I'd never heard of Chris Lynch, but what he's created here is a set of short stories that create a distinct atmosphere around the seaside village of Neverbury. From serial killing postmen to creepy supernatural shenanigans in toyshops, warring charity shops, fishermen who feed the local kraken, Neverbury has deeply creepy things round every corner.

Some of the stories land heavier on the horror than the comedy, but the writing has a cleverness of construction that makes it a fast listen that leaves you wanting to RETURN to Neverbury once you're done.

Terry Cooper on reading duties here has a fluidity and a lovely dark quality in his voice, that balances the creepiness and the complex comic writing, and likewise makes you want more Cooper reads in your life. One of my top 5 listens of 2023, I'll be going back to Neverbury time and time again.

Come once to Neverbury, and you'll be coming back too.

Superb dark comedy, beautifully read

The seemingly quiet English seaside town of Neverbury provides a very different kind of vacation. Filled with demons, serial killers, immortals, and time travellers, it's a delightful mix of picturesque charm and exciting chaos. From ghosts and haunted houses to vampires, witches, and other supernatural beings, there is adventure around every corner.
Its distinctive, rich sense of community is even supported by the phenomenally stubborn village council. Terry Cooper's lively and witty narration brings each of these tales to life superbly. Neverbury is a place you have to visit if you're looking for a truly out-of-the-ordinary getaway where the magical and the charmingly everyday meet. Praise of "the gods above and the great thing below!" is in order there.
