Daemons Discuss!

Hi! We're Angela, Jean & Valerie -- aka 'The Daemons' -- we talk about the All Souls Series by Deborah Harkness. This includes the trilogy (A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, The Book of Life), Time's Convert, and The World of All Souls and any future books incoming to the universe at large. As new episodes are released in the US/Canada, we also unpack the television series based on these beloved books (titled A Discovery of Witches). Go on! Put in your ear buds, pull up your chair, bring your beverage of choice and join us! We promise that we won't bite ... we'll leave that for the vampires. All Souls-ing since 2012, the Daemons run the online fanzine, Daemons Domain - series + fandom news, giveaways & All Souls magic. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Discovery of Witches - Season 3, Episode 6

Description: There are many things going on concurrently -- the hunt for an errant son, the heist of a very important object in the story, and the extermination of a major pest (to mention a few of the things in this episode). If we say any more it would be spoilers galore. It's jam packed with plot-lines, and we almost wonder what they've left for episode 7?! Stay tuned...

A Discovery of Witches - Season 3, Episode 4


Welcome to this "bridge" episode! This episode gives us a glimpse into the search for the pages of Ashmole 782. We watch Sarah, Agatha, Gallowglass, Miriam, Phoebe, and Fernando all offer their varying gifts to help Diana and Matthew get to end game. In the meantime (on the other side of this goal), are Gerbert, Satu, Benjamin and Peter doing their own independent plotting -- their go...

Episode description: Sol in Virgo dictates that children go back to school. Well, we are children at heart, so we'll take the advice! It also says it signifies a change of place. Matthew and Diana are entering a brave new world of disclosure; subsequently, Chris is entering the necessary new world of accountability (with a little help from Miriam). This episode was great fun to record -- we hope you enjoy listening to it!
