This is the third book in the "Skulduggery Pleasant" series and in this book Valkyrie and Skulduggery are trying to find out who is killing the Teleporters and planning to bring back the dark gods. In this book, I liked how the author added a mysterious and creepy feeling in some parts and like the other books in this series, you can't guess who and what will happen next. When I finished the book, I was very surprised to find out who was actually the bad guys because like I said, the author made it very unpredictable. I also liked how the author sometimes used a chapter to show us the conversations of the antagonists so we can know what's going on for the antagonists and what they are planning, because some other books might just be talking about the main character and we won't even have a clue who or what the antagonists are and what they are doing. I enjoyed reading this book and would recommend this book to others who like magic and would rate it 5/5 stars.

This is a great book. The main character, Stephanie,'s uncle was murdered. She meets a person who has no flesh, only bones, and they start a wonderful adventure to save the world. I love the way the author writes this book. It has a lot of funny moments in it, and the characters are all very humorous. This book is fascinating because it has both reality and magic in it. I look forward to reading the next book.

Skullduggery pleasant it is a good book with magic and elements.w

This book is good Stephanie is a normal kid with not-so-nice cousins and a loving uncle. Her uncle is a writer. But when her uncle die she meets skulduggery pleasant and her life changes: She finds out that her ancestors were God killers and she is magical - and so was skulduggery pleasent since he was a skeleton - and so were others Soon she found out he is a detective and became one with him. But of course there's enemys: a man ( I Can't remember how to spell his name) wants the sceptre - a weapon her ancestors used to kill the gods ( the god's names are the faceless one) to take over the leader - the grand Mage so it is a race for the scepter... Who will get the frist? What will happen to the septer? You have to find out... This book is part of a series by D. Landy And landy is a 10/ 10 author His terrifying moments give you nightmares And his sarcastic jokes will make you laugh This book is like a study book ( in a good way) it is for long reading times One of the greatest detective series 100 percent
