About this listen

A classic of the horror genre, Dennis Wheatley’s The Devil Rides Out pits the powers of good against the forces of evil as the Duc de Richelieu wrestles for the soul of his friend with the charming but deadly Satanist, Mocata. Mocata has the power to summon the forces of darkness and - as the Duc and his friends will find - is willing to call upon ever-increasing horror until thundering hooves herald the arrival of the Devil Himself. The book was also made into a classic cult horror film in 1968, starring Christopher Lee and Charles Gray.

First read the book in the late '60s as a young teenager. It provided plenty of enjoyment then. Like all books I like I'll read them over and over but I admit to not having read any Wheatley yarn in over 35 years.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable return to this novel.
The story is well paced and constructed. And while as an adult I'm a lot more sceptical on many things I once firmly believed in as a 16 year old the novel is no less captivating.
Nick Mercer does a great job as reader; a wonderful performance
