The Devil Rides Out
Many consider it to be Dennis Wheatley's finest work, which is praise indeed for this world beating novelist. It was a huge best seller in the 1930s when it first came out, full of 1930s atmosphere, skilfully written and well researched, too - although Wheatley never practiced magic himself, he met with many of the most famous occultists of his day to make the book as authentic as possible.
In The Devil Rides Out, the Duke de Richleau and a friend find that one of their number is missing from a reunion, and it turns out that he has fallen under the influence of a black magic sect. Disbelieving at first, the Duke and his friends soon discover that magic and the powers of darkness are still alive and very real, as they fight a series of terrific earthly and occult battles to save their friend's soul.
The book was filmed in the 1960s, with Christopher Lee taking the lead role as the Duke, and he he is back in splendid form as he narrates for your listening pleasure.

Saruman can read a Dr Seuss book and it would still be perfect
Christopher Lee (Rest in Peace) is perfection here

Sufficiently creepy for a 21st century reader in places while maintaining approachability. My only complaint is the rather abrupt ending which it seems could have been better pulled together. 4/5 Stars.
Masterful performance, classic story

this deserves much, much wider renown

The Duke can call in ‘the police’ because car stealing is a breech of the law but cannot call them in when over 100 people are having a Satanic meeting/Sabbath? In this period of history, this was against the law in England and France and penalties were quite stiff! 😂
The Mocata character is a great villain but in all honesty the ‘epic battle’ in the Pentagram is THE ‘Boss Fight’ for any gamers out there.
The ending becomes kind of anti-climatic after the Duke and Co. have to withstand Mocata’s wrath during that night in the pentacle.
Like I always say in my reviews, I think I am fair and am willing to suspend disbelief up to a point, but this book/story will make you roll your eyes more than once.
With that said, what a great book to listen to at night or fall asleep to. I wish I could read 1,000 books narrated by Christopher Lee. What a treasure he was. Strange Conflict, the follow-up to this is just a watered down version of Devil, but Lee makes that book a tour de force!
Classic!
