Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy - review

'I have read all eight of the Skulduggery Pleasant books and I think they are amazing'

I have read all eight of the Skulduggery Pleasant books and I think they are amazing. The series is full of action and excitement, and it had me stuck to the pages like glue. It makes you laugh, cry, jump up and down and some of it makes you pass out (kind of). I have to say though, that if you're squeamish this is not the book for you!
I have managed to get my mum and even my granddad (who is an author as well) to read it, and they both say they love them. I would say that if you like adventure, fantasy, mystery, thrillers or any other similar type of book then you will love these. I would recommend this series to anyone, (except those who don't believe in magic) of any age, gender, nationality, race or species - I mean seriously no-one else has taught their dog to read? (Just kidding!) You have to buy this book, otherwise the golden god will hunt you down. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm going to fight the Diablerie! (Sorry, SP reference.)
