Ananda:
What are the angels and gods supposed to be? I remember something early in the series about all non-terrestrial creatures being denizens of the never never, so I’ve always viewed all of these magical beings as variants of faerie type beings.

Eh, they're distinctly not a faerie-like being.

I think it's Bob, but otherwise Lash, who explains Angels are all-Soul. I don't remember the specifics of where I read the rest, but apparently Sidhe (and presumably other Faeries) are Body and Spirit. Humans have Soul, Body, and Spirit.

What this makes the Queens given their Soul-having origin is anyone's guess.

Sterling Rat:
Remember that Bob is not exactly a fairy, but is part of the fairy category of magicky stuff. In Death Masks, when asked to track down the Shroud, he said he couldn't touch it because it existed on a different wavelength. That makes me think that Fairies and Angel/Divine stuff both exist and are aware of each other, but "Exist on a different wavelength" - whatever that means.

It was Bob, when they were discussing Soulfire.

Yeah, that's why when the fae die in the mortal world they leave a body.  Other never-never beings don't.  They are constructs made out of the stuff of the Never-never.
