Third bone-breaking,belly-busting adventure in the bestselling series that puts the "funny"back in... um... funny bestselling series. That didn't really work,did it
If you've read the previous Skulduggery books then you know what the Faceless Ones are - and if you know what the Faceless Ones are,then you can probably take a wild guess that things in this book are going to get AWFULLY sticky for our skeletal hero and his young sidekick.
If you haven't read the previous Skulduggery books then what are you doing reading this Go and read them right now,so that you know what all that stuff in the previous paragraph was about.
Done Good. So now you're on tenterhooks too,desperately awaiting the answers to all your questions,and instead you're going to have to wait to read the book. Sorry about that.

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.
