The Wasp Factory

40th anniversary edition of Iain Banks- classic debut novel The Wasp Factory, with an introduction by Neil Gaiman.

'Two years after I killed Blyth I murdered my young brother Paul, for quite different reasons than I'd disposed of Blyth, and then a year after that I did for my young cousin Esmerelda, more or less on a whim. That's my score to date. Three. I haven't killed anybody for years, and I don't intend to ever again. It was just a stage I was going through.'
