Such Power Is Dangerous is a 1933 Dennis Wheatley thriller. No occult stuff, but it has an over-the-top conspiracy theory, a bizarre and convoluted plot, a healthy dose of paranoia and a set of ludicrously but delightfully excessive villains.

I know the words ‘would you like to listen to my podcast’ chill the blood like no other, so forgive me…

It’s a scripted comedy, centring around the thoughts and stories of Sir Desmond Stirling, best-selling author of horror stories. Some episodes are stand-alone while others are chapters of longer stories.

If double entendres make you laugh, then Sir Desmond will give you a big one…

Dennis Wheatley's 1933 novel Such Power Is Dangerous has no occult elements but plenty of classic Wheatley features - an over-the-top conspiracy theory, a bizarre convoluted plot, lots of paranoia and ludicrously but delightfully excessive villains.

And it has another feature familiar to Wheatley aficionados - an intense dislike of much of the modern world.

Great fun.
