Great job humanizing the demon. I never pictured a demon sulking!

I'm so sad I missed the first 29 chapters. The dialog between characters is well written, and their banter, enjoyable.

One note: no hypen needed on lecture-hall and pissed-off.

Lawyers in hell! haha

Nice read. Interesting subject matter.

Clever writing! It is always difficult to come into a story so late in the game, although I am certain I have reviewed at least some of the previous chapters!
I didn't see a single nit, leaving me nothing to say except that I enjoyed reading your chapter, and I hope I never meet any demons like these!

This was genuinely funny. The characters were interesting and the story's pace was perfect. The best part about this chapter (or story, rather, since I haven't read the previous chapters and so I'm not comparing it to those) was the dialogue. I wish I could write dialogue like this. It worked really well and gave the characters more depth than any long paragraph describing them could have.

There were only a few things I read that I thought could be improved upon. One is that you repeat the word "matches" three times in three lines. I'm not completely sure it wasn't humor, though, but I didn't read it as such and, therefore, it felt redundant. Another minor problem was the misspelling of some words, but I think it's ridiculous to point that crap out in a review and so I won't give you some boring, line-by-line account of each one I found. No critic should try and double as a spell check when all an author really wants is a review of his content.

Overall, this story was quick, interesting and fun and its dialogue did a lot to bring it to life and accentuate those previously mentioned things. Thanks for the read.

    I think the misspellings may be yours, as I write in the Queen's English, not American 8^)

    I'll revisit the matches. Thank you for your detailed review. I'm glad you liked it.

A great chapter , kept me reading till the end. Ah, poor little Scarth, aren't you just getting to love him? I bet you can't kill him off when the time comes, lol. Very good, a great read, and with touches of humour.

    Thanks. I think Scarth is probably only lovable on the page, but you'll have to wait for is ultimate fate.
