Cadaver kidnaps Art and retreats followed by the disciples and Kernel. A portal is created and Cadaver (a demon) comes through followed by four 'disciples'. Later during school she attacks and explodes. The parents are troubled by this and move to a new town far away from the city called Paskinston.Īfter a year in Paskinston he is confronted by the local supposed witch and discovers she too sees the floating lights. When he gets back he has no recollection of what happened, and is clutching his brother. However, Kernel doesn't remember anything of the past few days. A few days later Kernel returns with his baby brother, Art ( Artery). He opens a window and something (later discovered to be Lord Loss) passes through before returning. One day, being particularly depressed he is playing with some shapes that are flashing, joining them together. Demon Thief takes place thirty years before Lord Loss so most of the characters from the first book did not appear, though a few did.Ĭornelius 'Kernel' Fleck has spent all of his life seeing strange glowing shapes floating through the air, which he could manipulate and join. The protagonist is also different from that of the first book, a character called Kernel Fleck, who is the narrator of the book. Though it is the second book in the series, it is a prequel to Lord Loss, the first book in the series.
