Review
Praise for Skulduggery Pleasant: "It's exciting, pacy, nicely handled and fun." -- The Guardian "A gripping debut." -- The Observer "!remarkably accomplished." -- Irish Times "Reading [this book] is like riding a rollercoaster." -- Irish Independent "With writing of this standard, a rattling plot and definite potential for cross-over appeal, it's a good job Harry's [Potter] resigning before he's forcibly retired." -- Irish Mail on Sunday "A rip-roaring adventure."
