Robert Glenister and Ian McDiarmid star in a gripping BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of William Peter Blatty's classic horror novel 'When a radio play is this good, the devil really is in the details' Radio Times Summoned to a case of apparent possession, Father Karras is at first sceptical, then horrified. The victim -a 12-year-old girl named Regan - seems to be controlled by a malign supernatural force that makes her swear, blaspheme, scream in agony and perform appalling acts. Attempting to find a rational explanation for the girl's behaviour, Karras tries to talk to Regan, only to find himself locking horns with the demon inside her head. Its many voices mock him, tormenting him with his weakness, doubts and buried guilt. With his faith in God and humanity tested to the limit, Karras turns to the ultimate solution: exorcism... The film version of The Exorcist is widely considered to be one of the most terrifying movies ever made. This new, full-cast radio drama is just as chilling, suspenseful and shocking, while also retaining the depth and psychological complexity of Blatty's original novel. Adapted by Sony Award-winning dramatist Robert Forrest, it stars Robert Glenister as Karras, Alexandra Mathie as the Demon and Ian McDiarmid as Merrin.

A very enjoyable book. The Exorcist follows the pattern of the book being better than the movie. The author gives a more detailed account of the priests' views and motivations. I highly recommend it.

Better then the movie
If you liked the movie you will love the book. Goes hand in hand with a few extra parts that the movie did not cover. Excellent read and it was fast paced and easy to follow. Although I wish I had read the book first before I saw the movie. The book cannot bring to life the Demons facial expressions and its speech as the movie did, and the movie cannot put you in the "mind" of the characters. I cannot wait to see the movie again after reading the book.
