Did "Demonslayer" by Ian P. Eviston have any depth beyond being a fantasy novel?

[Williams Nnodim]

The novel goes beyond fantasy, emphasizing sibling relationships and exploring life's grey areas. While fantasy is the main focus, deeper lessons can be found in the characters and events, offering more than just an escape into a fantasy world.

Absolutely! The sibling bond between Spirit and Emily, the unity formed among the kids as they fight together, the cost of war and peace, and even the trope of the blind man who’s far from disabled—all of these themes transcend the genre and add depth to the story.

[Josephe-Anne]

Yes! This story had so much depth to it because the characters had relatable problems. Even though most of them have super powers, they were still fragile human beings. For example, Skylar struggles with mental health problems because she was raised in an abusive home. She and Dimitri have a codependent relationship that causes them to feel lost when they aren't around each other. Dimitri also has a strained relationship with his father because he blames his father for his mother's death. Spirit and Emily became orphans and grew up in poverty. Amelia has insecurity issues because she constantly feels that she has to prove herself to her parents. Those are just a few examples, but the ever-present challenge of dealing with the death of a loved one is another aspect that makes this story relatable and gives it more depth.
