Thanks to the author for the ARC copy. This book felt very different from anything I’ve read before.
The setting.. a quiet bar with Satan acting like a therapist—is simple but powerful. Each conversation slowly reveals how people misunderstand their own lives. It focuses on self-reflection without being preachy. Some parts felt uncomfortable because they felt real.
A good pick if you enjoy existential and philosophical fiction.

Stunningly insightful read!
I approached this book with a moderate amount of trepidation. The title alone would cause some readers to pause. If you are one of those, unsure about settling into this book, let me just tell you that it's a phenomenal read. I felt called out and seen throughout the greater majority of this book. From the very first chapter to the very last there was something that resonated very deeply with me and each character. I will say that this book might be hard for some to read in one sitting. Not because it was done poorly but because it was done so well. It touches on deep-seated trauma that a lot of humans carry without even realizing it's there. I'm rating this book four stars because I don't see a way to rate it four and a half. And the only reason I'm not giving it a full five stars is very minimal. I feel there could be a little bit more transition between each character that's introduced. There was quite a bit of repetition but I understand a great majority of that repetition in the opening of the interaction between the therapist and the character. Overall this was a book that will cause you to become very self reflective if you're open to the truth that you may be hiding from yourself. I've already recommended it to a few of my very close friends that I felt could benefit from the subtle yet very helpful advice within the pages.

I found Therapy with Satan: On The Rocks (The Devilverse) surprisingly clever and thought-provoking. The idea of the devil sitting in a bar and giving people honest advice instead of demanding souls immediately caught my attention. What I enjoyed most was how the devil wasn’t shown as pure evil, but as sharp, witty, arrogant, and strangely insightful — almost like someone who understands human weakness a little too well. Some of the conversations, especially around people-pleasing and self-deception, genuinely made me pause and reflect on my own habits and the stories people tell themselves to feel okay.
The book is not fast-paced or action-heavy, but that actually works in its favour because it gives the emotions and ideas time to sink in. At times the writing feels repetitive, but I honestly felt the author was trying to make certain truths stay with the reader. I also loved the different names and forms used for the devil throughout the story — it added charm and personality to the narrative. For such an unusual concept, the book feels deeply human, reflective, and refreshingly different from most fiction I’ve read lately.

a little like the Screwtape letters
The novel is about a bar where Morningstar is on vacation. Instead of demanding souls for his/her help, he gives out advice. The people who walk in, don’t think they a have problems, most are successful as the world defines success, they are nice. The Devil in either his male or female form depending on the client, systematically calls them on the lies they tell themselves, the lies they have been living.

What is the Devil was your therapist? If he/she forced you to reflect on the deepest darkest parts of yourself. This is what the book is about. Not as good as I expected and the bartender in the story calls the Devil multiple names which is irritating. Morning Star d doesn't make sense and wanker just seems inappropriate and wrong for the devil in my opinion.
May 4, 2026
I enjoyed this book. It was like one huge therapy session and a couple of the 'clients' were very relatable to me. The Devil as a therapist... he doesn't judge he just states the truth. Very interesting take, Nigel was also interesting - the bartender - i felt like he was getting therapy as well.

I received this as an ARC from the author and i enjoyed it.
This read is a unique blend of psychological fiction and philosophical fiction, this book uses simple conversations to explore self-reflection, human nature, and inner dialogue. L
It’s quiet, slightly unsettling and surprisingly thought-provoking for such a minimal setup.

I’d describe this as a quiet but intense read. There’s no big action, but the dialogue carries everything. It focuses on human nature, self-deception, and inner dialogue in a way that feels honest. The dark humor is subtle and works well with the overall tone. It’s the kind of book that makes you think rather than just read and move on.
Thanks to the author for providing an ARC.

So relatable
Interactions are set in a bar or saloon where it is only the bartender, Morningstar and you. Nigel, the bartender, and the devil have an unspoken game of who knows best going on with the drinks of the guests. It provides a bit of levity between the harsh truths being spoken. Several of the interactions were relatable, to a point of being uncomfortable. The thing is, the guidance “Satana” or “Lou” provided was spot on. It is uncomfortable, it won’t be easy, and you will have to decide if it is worth it. “Their” happiness, or yours.

I had no idea I would enjoy this book as much as I did. It actually spoke to me. Definitely an interesting concept that the writer posed. Having a conversation with the devil,the Lord of Life's Big Questions, and getting advice from him. But I have to admit that the advice he gives is very informative and perhaps it's meant for a lot of people that read this book. I know that the advice given by Satan is something that we should all learn to start learning, how to lay down our burdens and enjoy the life we were given. We could all use a therapy session with the devil,couldn't we? I have to say that Chapter 5 really resonated with me. To be honest, maybe every chapter did in some manner. We do the best with what we have at the time,right? I know if I received an invitation, I would certainly take it. Imagine getting advice from Morningstar. Actually,maybe just an in-depth conversation with the author would be very enlightening. Some of the best advice I've heard in a long time and it's staring us right in the face. I love the way Satan gets to change to the bewitching Satana when he/she wishes. The Mistress of Twisting Ways, The Mistress of the Dismantling, Devilina, The Mother of the Unknown Path, are all extremely descriptive terms for Satana and she is ALL of them. And the way the bartender, Nigel, tries to trick him up. The two of them actually have a very interesting connection that the author portrays well. They exchange glances that would make another man cringe in his chair. A book well worth reading with a ton of depth. I was very pleasantly surprised to realize how much I actually enjoyed this novel.

One of the most unconventional and intellectually engaging books I’ve read in a long time honestly!!
That which I thought would be some dark fantasy setup, transformed into something much more layered...part psychological exploration, part philosophical fiction and part emotional mirror held directly in front of me.
The book is brilliant in how casually it dismantles human behavior through conversation alone.
Every chapter introduced someone seeking answers, comfort or validation, only to realize that Satan has no interest in comforting illusions😈, instead, the sessions peel apart guilt, people pleasing, grief, insecurity, identity and the satisfying lies people normalize to survive.
The book is incredibly natural, hypnotic at times and the insights hidden inside these exchanges hit much harder than expected.
Several passages genuinely made me stop reading for a moment just to sit with what had been said.
Nigel and Satan's chemistry is something I admire with all heart and head. Their interactions added a lot of personality and dry humor to the heavier themes, which made the book feel immersive rather than emotionally exhausting.
Mr. Wescott deserves all the beautiful credits for creating a version of Satan that is not terrifying in the traditional sense, but dangerous because of how deeply perceptive and honest the character is🙌
This is definitely not a conventional plot driven novel and it will not be of great admiration for readers looking for action or simple entertainment, but yes if one enjoys books that challenge thinking, "Therapy With Satan" is an exceptionally clever and unforgettable read!!

This book is one of those that sounds provocative on the surface but turns out to be thoughtful, emotionally sharp and just human underneath!!
The concept itself is brilliant...people walking into a quiet bar, carrying the emotional baggage they barely understand, only to be confronted by a version of Satan who'd see through every excuse, every self deception and every carefully constructed lie they tell to themselves.
The book becomes even more interesting because of the conversations that never feel gimmicky, for they are just painfully real.
The writing is all about the super wonderful dialogue and every session carried a different emotional weight.
Some were darkly funny, some uncomfortable and some unexpectedly heartbreaking.
The chapter dealing with grief especially made it glue to my brain because it actually stripped emotion down to something real raw and honest.
Mr. Wescott didn’t try to “fix” his characters with neat solutions, instead, he exposed the uncomfortable truths people avoid, which made the book hit authenticity unlike many traditional self help or philosophical reads.
Another thing, that I genuinely appreciate and admire about the book, is it's atmosphere.
The smoky bar setting, Nigel quietly observing everything and Satan shifting between charisma and menace, created a super immersive experience. It fely theatrical at times, like watching intimate confessions surface in dim lights and half empty glasses🍷

"Therapy with Satan: On the Rocks ( The Devilverse)" by Daniel Wescott, absolutely blew my mind. It was hard to put it down. Give this a shot if you're looking for a quick/ incredibly pensive read!
I feel lucky to have read this. There are a lot of depictions of Satan in modern mythos but I had to pick it up, after I saw the word therapy in the title. I'm glad to have read about illegal therapy sessions, a character in the book's moral code, isn't threatened by.
Satan's "human", in this story is a barman, who writes about the encounters the fallen angel has with the people, who come into the bar he frequents. Lucifer, depicted as a woman, at times, gives these patients the lesson of their life, in these sessions, with most of them, leaving the bar in tears.
As I read this, I felt that this aforementioned effect was a desire the devil would set out to attain, just for the fun of it but as you read, you realize that is not the case, in the least. The devil's game is not to ruin the "patient's" night but their vanity.
This work is a self- reflective journey for the reader, as well. You will be left wondering which of these customers you may be and if you should take The Tempter's council, yourself.
Full of rememberable quotes/quips, Wescott's book will blow you away.

This book is very different from normal fiction and keeps you thinking even after reading.
The idea of Satan acting like a therapist is strange but also very interesting.
Instead of horror, the book focuses more on human emotions, pain, guilt, and truth.
Most of the story happens through conversations, but those conversations feel deep and powerful.
I liked how every character slowly opens up about their hidden struggles.
The writing feels sharp, emotional, and sometimes uncomfortable in a good way.
The Devil is shown as calm, intelligent, and brutally honest rather than scary.
Some dialogues hit very hard because they feel real and relatable.
The book talks about loneliness, grief, pressure, mental health, and emotional exhaustion in a simple but meaningful way.
Nigel’s observations from behind the bar also make the story more engaging.
The bar setting gives the whole book a dark and mysterious feeling.
At times, the conversations become intense and emotionally heavy.
Still, the emotions feel natural and not overdramatic.
The book makes readers question themselves and the stories they tell themselves.
Overall, it is a dark, thoughtful, and emotional read that stays in your mind for a long time.

"Therapy With Satan" is a very engaging book. This book challenges your beliefs and changes perspectives and illusions towards life. I was so intrigued by the story that I finished it in one go. This book explains truths about love, guilt, success and identity.
The story revolves around Satan, who is a therapist who never lies. The idea of the devil sitting in a bar and giving people honest advice instead of demanding souls immediately caught my attention.
What I enjoyed most was how the devil wasn’t shown as pure evil. Instead he is a sharp, witty, arrogant, and strangely insightful person, almost like someone who understands human weakness a little too well.

Daniel Wescott written Therapy with Satan: On The Rocks (The Devilverse) which have unexpected twist in plot. At first, I thought it would just be a funny dark fantasy, but the story actually carries a lot of emotion beneath all the sarcasm and chaos. It will keep our mind in another world which ww are confusing. The idea of having therapy sessions with Satan sounds wild, yet the book somehow makes it feel meaningful and relatable.
What I enjoyed most was how naturally the emotions were written. The story tells about loneliness, toxic relationships, insecurities, and emotional struggles in a way that feels real without becoming too heavy. The conversations are witty and entertaining, but they also make you stop and think at times.
Satan’s character was honestly the biggest surprise. Instead of being shown as purely evil, he comes across as flawed, sharp, and strangely human. Overall, this book is weird, funny, emotional, and memorable all at once — definitely not a typical read.

This was not the read I was expecting but exactly what I needed, and I imagine anyone who picks this up might feel the same way. I found the balance between the brutal honesty on human flaws and the comedic relief provided by the very human feelings of Nigel being third wheel to some psychologically devastating experiences was brilliant. I loved that Nigel also felt personally connected to some of the guests and it offered perspective and allowed me to in a way, feel allowed to react even more in my own ways. The last thing I expected was to feel healed from this book but here I am getting ready to recommend this book to anyone I know who is struggling to acknowledge their own self worth. I am very grateful to have received a complimentary copy of this book as it really gave me a lot of perspective and insight! Anyone who is a fan of examining human emotions and human behavior should definitely pick this book up immediately.

Therapy with Satan is a title that most would do a double take if they saw it which is probably the point the author was going for. The book is written from the Immortal Bartender Nigel's point of view as he watches the interactions between Satan and the patrons in the bar. In this book, Satan gives out advice that really makes you think. The book reminds me a lot of The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis which I thoroughly enjoyed. That is how I pictured the character of Satan as I was reading this book. Some chapters pulled more emotions out of me than others. The grief chapter in particular was rough for me as I read it shortly after finding out that my aunt had passed away. This is a book that you don't necessarily go looking for but it does seem to find you when you need it the most. This book to me was about pulling those hard truths and tackling the parts of yourself that you don't want to acknowledge.

At the time of reading this book I felt like sitting in therapy I never asked for. And ironically, the one who is giving the therapy is satan.
Yes, he is Satan but he isn’t shown as rude, cruel or impolite instead he’s calm, observant, and almost too understanding, feels like he’s given a place of psychiatrist who listen, gave advice and he’s advising everything like sharing his personal experience. But doesn’t mean it providing the comfort rather alerting you.
The story were not meant to provide the comfort, but tells you to see inside yourself, question it, gently unmoor and expose the emotional human under the hard nutshell. That made the book feel surprisingly personal at times.
Almost every chapters and emotions hits hard. Not exactly like a self-help book with life lessons but something new worth exploring.

This book is part of a series called Devilverse. It features Satan as a therapist and Nigel as the barkeep of a pub who mixes drinks and takes meticulous notes in his large book. The “patients” arrive by invitation and each has a psychological problem of some kind (grief, anger, loneliness, need to please, etc.) Satan points out to each person that he is “on leave” and therefore not interested in their souls. Mixed in with the story are excellent bits of humor. What makes this book rate 5 stars from me is the fact that Satan does not help people solve their problems. He gets them to identify the problem and then leaves it to them to solve it. Is this not a perfect response from the Devil?

Reading _Therapy with Satan: On the Rocks_ might just be the best therapy you didn’t know you needed.
This psychological fiction puts a bold spin on self-reflection: Satan himself appears as a therapist who never lies. If you’re wrestling with self-doubt, confusion, or just feeling stuck, this book meets you there. Through sharp, unflinching conversations, it unpacks love, guilt, success, and identity with rare honesty.
The writing is gripping and the concept is unsettling in the best way. It doesn’t comfort you — it challenges you. Page by page, it peels back illusions and forces you to question beliefs you’ve held for years.
Engaging, provocative, and strangely healing, this is a book that shifts perspective. You won’t regret picking up this masterpiece.

Therapy Indeed
Going into this series, I definitely wasn’t expecting the darkness to swallow my psyche whole. I figured it was something funny, a way to barely touch on human behavior with a silly little lead that eases the darker parts. What I found instead was literal therapy that is much more direct than sidestepping the issue. Direct, straightforward, with no hesitation. It makes you stop and think, then catches you in the dark when you think it’s over. Pleased with my first step into the Devilverse. If you have any issues that this book looks at, and are NOT ready to look at yourself in the mirror, bring it to therapy with you and read it with your therapist. It doesn’t hold your hand but it does make you think.

I did not know that this book had something like this. I honestly loved the concept, the dark humour throughout the story, especially the conversations and the characters. I would like to recommend this book to people who are into fantasy and can understand darker tones and unconventional ideas.
The book felt entertaining, creative, and different from all the books I have read so far. It is a story where the devil himself appears in the form of someone giving advice to people dealing with grief, loss, happiness, and different struggles. There are multiple characters, each with their own opinions and perspectives. The devil works as a therapist at a bar, which is something completely unbelievable yet fascinating.

Couldn't put ot down.
If dark romance and psychological chaos had a baby, this book would be it. Was wild in the best of ways! There was tension, toxic obsession, banter, and emotional damage that had me hooked from the beginning!! One minute I'm laughing, and the next I'm questioning everything I just read, but in a good way!
The chemistry between the characters was intense and messy without feeling forced. It leaned more into darker themes instead of trying to soften it. The atmosphere the author created was amazing. It felt chaotic, addictive, and strongly emotional.
The spice lever was amazing. It was the kind of book that kept me reading even when I should have been sleeping.
Definitely a great read!!

What first drew me to this book was the unusual concept of Satan acting as a therapist. It sounded strange, but it works remarkably well.
Rather than focusing on action or a complex plot, the book relies on conversations that gradually peel back layers of human behavior. Through these sessions, it explores topics like guilt, self-deception, grief, pride, and relationships in a way that feels accessible and engaging.
The dark humor adds personality without taking away from the more serious moments. I found myself pausing several times to reflect on points that felt uncomfortably true.
If you enjoy philosophical fiction, character-driven stories, and books that challenge the way you think, this is definitely worth picking up.

Therapy with Satan: On the Rocks is an introspective and dark guide into human emotions, with intense conversations and psychological insight. Satan is not just a classic bad guy, but one who forces people to face some of their uncomfortable truths. Every interaction is honest, guilty, fear-inspiring and self-reflecting, and the book is an emotional powerhouse in an unusual way. The narrative is engaging and thought provoking, with dialogue carrying the story through. The real strength of the book lies in what it encourages readers to consider, quietly challenging their beliefs, insecurities and own stories. It isn't a matter of darkness or shock, it's a question of recognising, being vulnerable, of understanding oneself more honestly and deeply.

This book feels less like a story and more like sitting in on real, uncomfortable conversations.
The idea of therapy with Satan is creative, but what really stands out is how it explores human nature and self-deception. Each session slowly breaks down the characters’ beliefs, making it very thought-provoking. There’s a strong mix of psychological fiction and philosophical fiction, along with subtle dark humor that keeps it engaging.
I also liked how it focuses on inner dialogue and self-reflection without giving easy answers. If you enjoy existential and meaningful reads, this one is worth it.

I received an ARC from the author, and this was an interesting read and it surprised me because I thought it would be more dramatic or horror-based, but it’s actually very quiet and deep.
The idea of therapy sessions with Satan sounds strange at first, but it turns into something very thoughtful. It focuses a lot on self-reflection and how we lie to ourselves.
The conversations feel real, almost like you’re sitting there listening. I liked how it explores human nature without trying too hard. It’s not a fast-paced story, but it makes you think long after reading.
If you enjoy psychological fiction and a bit of existential thinking, this is worth trying.

Therapy with Satan: On The Rocks by Daniel Wescott is one of those rare books built on an unusual concept that actually delivers far more depth than you expect.The story starts with an unusual premise about a man who sits with Satan in a secluded bar and it develops into a story that examines human nature through personal experiences. The devil here exists as a character who possesses dangerous knowledge because he can see through all human defenses to reveal their true selves. The conversations create an experience that blends sharpness with psychological depth while sometimes revealing private information about the speakers.
