Customer Reviews

People are over reacting

I can't believe the nonsense on this board about the 'racist' content of The Satanist. Granted, the use of the 'N' word pops up a handful of times, but give me a break. You hear more of that in the first 30 seconds of most rap songs.To anyone thinking about reading this book, don't let a few of the PC Police make you miss out on a great read. I give The Satanist my highest marks. It's a can't miss.Like someone else had mentioned, it's too bad Hammer never made this a movie. This has Cristopher Lee written all over it.

The Satanist is Superb

Great supernatural fiction in the British tradition. Wheatley is superb in this blending of satanism, communism and other evils of the 1960's. A good read!!! Too bad this has not been made into a film like The Devil Rides Out...

Very enjoyable, especially if you have a goulish imagination

A very enteraining book. If you have a vivid imagination and a love of horror then this book will be a gripping read.

The Most Compelling Book I Have Ever Read

The Satanist is gripping from beginning to end, combining horror fantasy and thrills that made The Prince of Thriller Writer the best. The content of the plot makes you truly believe in the nature and force of evil. The characters also give a true traditional romance to the story. No novel is its worth without the superb finale that the lucky reader gets from this book.
