Re: Woodward Academy, Year 8, The
I know it's not really your normal aspect of writing, but i'd be interested in reading something from the non human side of it. Somebody that of course goes against the normal flow of their society, elf, dwarf or maybe even go further to the land of the giants if you want to keep the MC a human in a very different environment.

I'm glad you enjoy them. I should probably consider working on one of the two other Dugerraverse novels I have planned... though neither of them have anything to do with David or Woodward Academy.

Re: Woodward Academy, Year 8, The
I have a question I do not believe was addressed here previously. Let me start off by saying I understand you are the master of the story so my normal gotcha questions exist only as limp noodles. That said, in Book 8 when David and the gang are fighting demons, uh, where exactly did the demons come from? In this world, there is no Hell. Many philosophies believe that Demons were spawned in Hell to torture the poor souls who ate meat on Friday. According to the most common account among ancient Jews and Christians, demons were the postmortem spirits of long-deceased primordial giants, who had come about thanks to the illicit union between fallen angels and mortal women. Again, this took place in Hell and since there is no Hell here, I again ask, where did the demons come from?
I look forward to being schooled with your response. Thanks!

Re: Woodward Academy, Year 8, The
I thought it was stated in the last book quite a few times that demons are another type of fairy. Please correct me if I’m wrong Eric Storm, the demons that David and everyone were fighting are ultimately the fairy equivalent of the fae. Right?

Re: Woodward Academy, Year 8, The
Timberwolf is correct: In the Dugerraverse, a demon is just a specific class of fairy. And this was stated at least once or twice over the course of the books.
