GetUrBook Review : The Devils's Magus by Marius Creed

 The Devil’s Magus by Marius Creed – A Dark Occult Thriller That Pulls You Into the Shadows

From the very first chapter of The Devil’s Magus, I could feel myself stepping into a world where every shadow hides a secret and every encounter hints at something darker lurking underneath. Marius Creed builds his story with gripping tension, weaving occult elements with emotional stakes in a way that feels both cinematic and unsettling.

The story follows Mark Benedict, a man who never expected the supernatural to walk so close to his life—until he receives a warning that his brother, James, is in danger. What begins as a simple attempt to reconnect with family spirals into a confrontation with a hidden society obsessed with forbidden magic. The moment Mark joins forces with Sam, James’s estranged wife, the narrative deepens into a mix of mystery, danger, and unexpected alliances.

For me, the highlight of the book was the balance between supernatural horror and the human emotions running underneath. Whether it’s loyalty, love, regret, or redemption, these themes anchor the darker plotlines and make the story feel grounded even when demonic forces begin to close in.

The pacing is sharp, the atmosphere is chilling, and the antagonist — the sinister Sir Giles Worsley — brings a menacing charm that pushes the story forward. I also enjoyed the supporting cast, especially the psychic medium and the mercenary whose skepticism adds a nice tonal contrast to the eerie tension.

If you enjoy occult thrillers, dark magic, secret societies, and stories with nonstop momentum, this book delivers. It’s atmospheric, action-packed, and filled with that delicious sense of dread that keeps you turning the pages long after you planned to stop.

My Verdict:

A gripping occult thriller with heart, shadows, and high stakes. I couldn’t put it down.
