Description: Our impressions, feelings, nitpicking, drooling, squeeing, dying on/over episode one, season (or ‘series,’ pick your flavor!) one of A Discovery of Witches SPOILER ALERT! We (The Daemons) approach this podcast with an assumption that the listener has read All Souls universe books, including the trilogy (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, The Book […]

We lifted our feet, and stepped into the unknown. Pictured on set: St Paul’s Cathedral Description: And off we go into 1590! Diana and Matthew make quite the splash in London! Their main mission: Find a teacher, and get Ashmole 782. In/out, and back to present time, right?! Yeah. No. There a few obstacles (real […]

Yes!  We are giving all of this away! So we’ve come to an end of our summer series of giveaways — congratulations to Bailee, Cheryl and Wendy for winning the previous giveaways in this series! We figured we’d finish off in grand de Clermont style!  This is open to ALL, and it’s very simple to […]

We went a bit literal with this image, but hey — stock photos — If you know, you know. Description: Chapter 16 offers us a much needed off-ramp to the familiar roads we are used to traveling on; books, libraries, labs. Miriam is there to gain control of the situation, and Gallowglass is present to […]

Sometimes the graphics Daemon gets a little restless and just plays with her toys.  We figured we’d dedicate a page to it.  Strictly AST items here, and some were made for our other project, but they are totally appropriate to post here.  If you have followed some of our other Pinterest boards in the past, […]

😱😰😶 Description: In this double feature episode covering two chapters of Shadow of Night, we look at the dangerous creatures in and around Diana Bishop & Matthew Clairmont’s lives. First, we are confronted with the anomaly that has gotten away from the de Clermonts, and landed into the hands of Peter Knox (and Gerbert!); poor […]

  Before we get into it, there are some key concepts/institutions in this world to consider while reading the character biographies. We’ll start with what the characters are. Creatures:  There are three *other* creatures, besides humans that populate this earth.  We won’t go into humans, because we all know what a “human” is. Daemons – […]

Let’s talk about one of the most despicable characters in the AST universe. Benjamin. Nikki Ben.  Whatever you call him – he’s not a nice guy.  What’s somewhat mystifying is the urge to make excuses for Benjamin’s actions, blaming the blood rage or the lack of guidance as a new vampire for his behavior.  But after […]

Hardcover of The Book of Life (signed by Deborah Harkness) and a glass cabochon necklace is up for grabs! The time has come! Summer giveaways have started! It’s early, you say? Never, we say! Anyway, we are offering up a (now) rare first edition hardcover of The Book of Life! Oh, and some swag! You […]

We are thrilled to present this Q&A with Richard Ovenden!  He is the current librarian at the Bodleian of Oxford University.  Ever since the beginning of our All Souls adventures, we’ve been fascinated with the Oxford and the Bodleian in particular (as we are sure many of you are!)  Mr. Ovenden is the 25th Librarian […]

Which will you choose? There are all sorts of spooky things going on here at Daemons Domain!  Welcome to our first official fall/winter giveaway!  Since Halloween is one of our favorite holidays, we figured we’d throw in a twist!  The Winner will CHOOSE their prize!  To quote Stephen Proctor, ‘Cool’, eh?  Your choice is basically […]

Mont St. Michel – image source: http://mapio.net/pic/p-9455636/ Description: Off to Sept-Tours we go! 1590’s style! As we travel with Matthew and Diana, we make a few stops. With each step closer to Philippe de Clermont, we not only wonder about him, but we start to really think about who Matthew de Clermont is! Diana Bishop […]

Description: All Souls Con 2019 is coming sooner than we think! As is our tradition (since the beginning of this podcast), we invited Laura Ventura (co-director of All Souls Con) on to talk about it. As fate would have it, Angela was unable to record that day, so Laura graciously agreed to join us as […]

Considering our new found appreciation for him, Chris deserved a front/center spot this episode… Description: Father Hubbard is given an ultimatum from his sire, Benjamin — which leads him to desperate measures; go to Matthew to handle this problem, because he is the “break-in-case-of-emergency” option! The problem? Jack Blackfriers. Yes! He’s back! He’s a vampire […]
