Read The Demon Collector Storyline:
Jonathan Stroud meets Joseph Delaney (with a bit of Dickens). A darkly humorous, hugely imaginative and utterly gripping story of a time when demons roamed London's underworldEdgy Taylor sees demons when nobody else can. Edgy thinks he is insane and expects to be carried off any minute. He is a prime collector, wandering the streets of London collecting dog muck for the tannery. The only thing Edgy is good at is setting and solving riddles, and evading his brutal and abusive master. One night, when his master seems genuinely intent on killing Edgy, Professor Envry Janus intervenes. Envry takes him to the Royal Society of Daemonologie where Edgy will now live. It is here, though, that Edgy discovers chance had nothing to do with their meeting, and that instead he holds the key to a deadly demon prophecy.Pages of The Demon Collector :
