Description

The ULTIMATE story collection for Skulduggery Pleasant fans. Featuring two AMAZING novellas and fourteen GRIPPING short stories - including three new stories written exclusively for this edition. We all know that doors are for people with no imagination so smash the glass, climb through the window and enter the awesome world of Skulduggery Pleasant with this ultimate story collection. For the first time, every Skulduggery Pleasant short story, plus two novellas - Get Thee Behind me, Bubba Moon and The End of the World - is collected into one magnificent volume. But that's not all... This brand-new paperback includes fourteen short stories - three of which are AWESOME NEW stories written exclusively for this edition. Two of them delve into the things that our old friend Billy-Ray Sanguine gets up to between books, while the third pits Skulduggery and Valkyrie against a serial killer, a desperate ghost, and a swarm of very nasty insects. So it's business as usual, then. Introduced by Derek, these are the hidden stories of the skeleton who saves the world... and the girl who's destined to destroy it.

Derek Landy lives near Dublin. Before writing his children's story about a sharply-dressed skeleton detective, he wrote the screenplays for a zombie movie and a murderous horror film. "I think my career-guidance teacher is spinning in her grave," he says, "or she would be if she were dead."

PRAISE FOR THE SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT SERIES: "This is a writer at the height of his powers and Landy is getting better with every book... Whatever your age, read them and enjoy the ride." - Irish Independent "Fast and funny" The Times "A fast evolving plot and a great mix of scariness and humour" 5 star review, Sunday Express
