Review
PRAISE FOR SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT:
‘Hugely enjoyable – a thrill-a-minute adventure.’ Jonathan Stroud
‘It’s exciting, pacey, nicely handled and fun. I sincerely hope Landy revisits these characters.’
Philip Ardagh, Guardian
‘A gripping debut.’
Phil Hogan, Observer
‘Skulduggery Pleasant serves up a thoroughly satisfying blend of humour, magic and adventure. Once you’ve met Stephanie and Skullduggery, you’ll be clamouring for a sequel.’ Rick Riordan
“A remarkably accomplished debut with wonderful dialogue.”
Robert Dunbar, Irish Times
‘[Landy’s] fight scenes are perfectly pitched. His characters are exceptionally well drawn and delightfully colourful… Reading [this book] is like riding a rollercoaster.’ Irish Independent
‘Landy’s witty style will win him fans of all ages… With writing of this standard, a rattling plot and definite potential for cross-over appeal, it’s a good job Harry’s [Potter] resigning before he’s forcibly retired.’ Irish Mail on Sunday
“Humour and magic combine in this thrilling adventure.”
Waterstone’s Books Quarterly –This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
Product Description
The sixth instalment in the historic, hysterical and horrific Skulduggery Pleasant series. Think you’ve seen anything yet? You haven’t. Because the Death Bringer is about to rise…

And that’s a very, very Bad Thing…
