Reception

[edit]

Jonathan Palmer reviewed Daemonic for Arcane magazine, rating it a 3 out of 10 overall.[1] Palmer comments that "Daemonic is the name of the book you should avoid. Diabolical might have been more apt."[1] Reviewing the novel for The Agony Column,[2] Rick Kleffel described Daemonic as "a complex combination of subtle thought and over-the-top horror, a crowd-pleaser, a perfect B-movie rendered with consummate skill as a high-class piece of writing."
