Angie Fox and The Tale of Two Demon Slayers


Hi, my name is Angie Fox and I write the Accidental Demon Slayer series. It’s about a preschool teacher turned demon slayer who has to run off with her grandmother’s gang of geriatric biker witches. It happens every day, right?

The series has been a blast to write and I think I’ve had some of the most fun coming up with demons. Yes, they are scary. Yes, they are out to take over the world. But they have to have their own personalities and problems too.

In The Accidental Demon Slayer, Vald the demon has been imprisoned by my heroine’s ancestor, who was one of the greatest demon slayers. But has he spent his time in the fifth level of hell just moping? No-sir-e-bob. Vald is a bit of a mad scientist. He’s coming up with ways to beat demon slayer technology.

And then there are the sex-on-the-brain succubi in The Dangerous Book for Demon Slayers. They’re out to conquer the world, one man at a time. Problem is, no one seems to take sexy creatures seriously. The magical bureaucracy has ignored the succubi problem in Las Vegas. After all, they’ve added a certain “what happens in Vegas…” charm. But demons, left to their own devices, will get out of hand.

Finally, you have the old family friends turned demonic in A Tale of Two Demon Slayers. This one was fun because they figured out how to use my heroine’s magic against her and it really forces her to take a look at her abilities, her powers and just what she’s willing to do to protect the people she loves.


Tell us about the most interesting demon you’ve read about/seen in a movie and you’re entered to win a copy of one of my books (winner’s choice).

Or if you already have the Accidental Demon Slayer series, you can have a Kiss My Asphalt t-shirt like the biker witches wear in the books.

Please include email contact info with your comment.

This contest is open internationally.

Can a gargoyle count as a demon? If so, in Alexandra Ivy - The Guardians of Eternity series... she has this short, stump little gargoyle whose name is Levet and he is hilarious! He hangs out with all the hot vampires... because all the vampires mates absolutely adore him. The vamps consider him a pain in the a$$. We are waiting to see if she will give him his own book, lol!

Now I know that is not exactly what you meant... and as far as that goes ~ demon men... There is The Lord of the Underworld series by Gena Showalter. Those men are delicious! And there is also Jennifer Lyons Wing Slayer group!

Thanks for the chance to win!

Cadeon Woede in Kresley Cole's Dark Desires After Dusk from her Immortals After Dark series. He is a rage demon who has found his mate but must betray her to right a wrong he had done in the past. Great book! Absolutely adore this tortured type of hero.

The most interesting demon I can think of is one I don't have a name for it...it is whatever Barron's is in KMM's Fever series. In the last book I think we got a taste of what he is...and it is very interesting! Also in that series is the Death-by-sex Fae...that also very interesting! ha!

I have the first two Demon Slayer books and I can't wait to get my hands on A Tale of Two Demon Slayers! thanks for the chance!

Ohh...I love all of these recommendations. Right now, I'm re-reading the third Dresden book and he's hunting a demon ghost. Very cool and scary at the same time.

And yes, I can't wait for KMM's last book in the Fever series. I'm on a few paranormal readers loops and theories abound as to what Barrons is. I keep changing my mind. ;)

Hmmm the most interesting demon I've read about? Has to be the succubus/inccubus. Yeah until recently I had no idea they existed. I mean how cool would it be to live purely to have sex and take peoples souls...LOL.Like I don't already live like that? Buah ha ha. Kidding. Not really. ;)

{Don't enter me into the contest I'm just showing my love to Angie. LOL.Hi Angie!}

In one of Keri Arthur's Riley Jensen series books (#6 I think), Riley faced the demon to end all demons.

I'm also a huge fan of the TV show Supernatural. The demons basically possess humans, which isn't that original, I know, but the Winchester bros make it look easy to take them out.

There are some great recommendations here already. Also, adding the Accidental Demon Slayer series to my wish list.

One of my favorites is from Christine Warren's book The Demon You Know. In the book Rule sounds so sexy. Her books are great and I can't wait for the next one to come out. I also love Gena Showalter's Lord of the Underworld men they sound so hot. I also love Kresley Cole's Woede brothers they are as different as day and night but each are great in their own way.

Jessica! Great to see you. And I had no idea you were such a wild child. ;)

Angie Fox said...

Thanks, Angel! I really like Keri Arthur too.

Angie Fox said...

Writing these down as fast as I can, Sherry. And yes Spav, the Demonica series is great.

Estella said...

I can't pick just one---has to be all of the men in the Demonica Series by Larissa Ione.

My favorite demon is Simi from Kenyon's DH series. I love her fashion sense and non-stop shopping ability, and her utter devotion to her Akri.

The most interesting and probably my favorite is Jim from the Katie MacAlister Dragon books. He just makes me laugh and provides great amusement.

Thanks!

My favorite demon is Simi from Sherrilyn Kenyon's DarkHunter series!

For movies there is a couple of Pumpkinhead movies where there is a demon who kills people but only for revenge. I was rooting for him because they tortured him and left him for dead!

Thanks for chance to win a book or T-shirt!

Does Damien count? That little boy is creepier than all get out!

In books, well I'm pretty partial to my own sexy demons, so I really can't answer that one :-)

I have to say Jim from Katie McCallister Dragon books too. He is so funny and I love all his of doggy incarnations.

halukacy said...

All my faves have already been posted, so unfortunately I'm not going to sound original =( Sherrilyn Kenyon's Simi and her family are hilarious. Gena Showalter's demons are all hot hot hot (I love to love demons). I just started reading Larissa Ione's Demonica, so I don't know them all yet, but I'm liking Eidolon so far. For scariest demons, I still have nightmares about The Exorcist (book, not movie). *shivers*

I think my most favorite interesting demon in a movie / TV is probably something having to do with vampires... maybe Eric from True Blood or Damon from Vampire Diaries!
