| From Midnight Walk's reviews: |
| "The book makes a great first impression by leading with Armand Constantine's "Monsoon Devil"..." |
| Bookgasm |
| "Armand Constantine opens the ball with Monsoon Devil, a colourful, entertaining tale of violence and (wrongly placed) revenge." |
| Bookgeeks |
| "Armand Constantine kicks off the anthology with his elegantly horrific "Monsoon Devil", a disturbing story about a malevolent holy man who offers to make wishes come true...for a price." |
| Creature Feature Tomb of Horror |
| "...a strong tale of magic and revenge..." |
| Dark Discoveries |
| "In "Monsoon Devil" by Armand Constantine, a grief-stricken husband haunted by the memories of his late wife seeks out a holy man with slithering tattoos who can summon the titular character - "a patron of things revealed and hidden" - so he can forget. The intriguing backdrop of New Delhi comes to vivid life in Constantine's skilled hands, allowing readers a multi-sensory experience of the abject poverty and filth of the ghettos of India only glimpsed in shows like The Amazing Race and films like Slumdog Millionaire. |
| Dark Scribe Magazine |
| "The book hits the ground running with Armand Constantine's "Monsoon Devil", a twisted little tale about a malignant holy man who grants wishes prior to the monsoon season in India..." |
| Horror Drive-In |
| "...a fine, well written tale..." |
| Horror Fiction Review |
| "The best examples of bucking the system begin with "Monsoon Devil" by Armand Constantine, which brings the reader to Delhi for a tale of retribution. A superb opening, it twists the old revenge trope into something unexpected." |
| Horror World |
| "Armand Constantine ("Monsoon Devil") might be known more for his fantasy and horror video game writing, but his unconventional rape/revenge tale - in which a widower possessed by a demon encounters his wife's murderer in a barbershop - works well in the printed form." |
