I love Skulduggery Pleasant. Very entertaining writing style, dry humor, and great characters. ( )
bookappeal | Feb 6, 2009 |  
Continues the story of Skulduggery and Stephanie (now Valkyrie) and their fight against those who want to rule ordinary humanity.

It's fun, not quite as much fun as the previous one but still a well-realised world, even if my previous comments about it's predecessor that the female lead really comes across as a bit older than the story shows still rings true, to me she feels more around 16 than 13. ( )
