Meet Skulduggery Pleasant: detective,sorcerer,warrior.
Oh yes. And dead.
The Necromancers no longer need Valkyrie to be their Death Bringer,and that's a Good Thing.
There's just one catch. There's a reason the Necromancers don't need her any more - because they've found their Death Bringer already,the person who will dissolve the doors between life and death.
And that's a very,very Bad Thing...

Derek Landy
As the helmsman of the wildly-successful Skulduggery Pleasant series,Derek Landy exchanged a life as a sometime writer of screenplays to,almost overnight,becoming one of the world's biggest names in children's fiction. Debuting in 2007,Skulduggery Pleasant took its readers on a wild ride to the undead,where the niece of a famous horror writer suddenly discovers that what he was writing wasn't so fictional after all. In 2015,Landy briefly stepped away from his Skulduggery duties to pen a fresh trilogy for young adults,Demon Road,and as something of a Whovian,contributed a tale to the Doctor Who collection 12 Doctors 12 Stories.
