Review:
A stunningly crafted, intelligent and moving horror story ... this is a subtle, revealing exposition of the power of the devil. There is an elegance to the storytelling, and a command of what evil may mean, that lingers with you long after the end (DAILY MAIL)
Effective, literate, nightmarish (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)
A thrilling exploration of how we all have to do battle with our own demons (MAIL ON SUNDAY)
A smart, thrilling, utterly unnerving novel. Pyper's gift is that he deeply respects his readers, yet still insists on reducing them to quivering children. I like that in a writer (Gillian Flynn)
'The Demonologist is that rare thing - a novel that is both genuinely terrifying and erudite. The research is excellent and lightly worn, the pace and cleverness of the plot thrilling, one of the most exciting works of fiction I've read for some time' (Kate Mosse)
Genuinely terrifying, don't-read-late-at-night stuff. Thrilling, compelling and beautifully written (SJ Watson)
'The Demonologist is a smart psychological thriller. Carefully crafted, claustrophobic and deeply, deeply creepy' (Simon Toyne)
Richly crafted, deliriously scary and compulsively page-turning from beginning to end. Imagine The Exorcist and The Da Vinci Code as penned by Daphne du Maurier. Don't miss this one! (Jeffery Deaver)
As compelling and smoothly chilling a tale as you'll find this year. The Demonologist shows an enormously gifted writer at the top of his game, producing a novel of eerie menace and unique depth. Those of us who write supernatural stories do not throw the names Ira Levin, William Peter Blatty, and Peter Straub around lightly. You'll be hearing all three associated with Mr Pyper soon, and all such comparisons are warranted, the highest praise I can offer (Michael Koryta, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of THE PROPHET)
Pyper is an intelligent writer, steeped in Miltonian symbolism, gifted with language . . . This artful literary exploration of evil's manifestation makes for a sophisticated horror tale (KIRKUS)
