Reviews

""A high-intensity tale....Readers, particularly Artemis Fowl fans, will be skipping meals and sleep to get to the end."" -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""Utterly charming...perfect for the Potter crowd."" -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) ""Rich fantasy that is as engaging in its creative protagonists and villains as it is in the lightning-paced plot and sharp humor."" -- BCCB ""Landy keeps the action brisk, his characters slightly macabre, and uses humor to take the edge off."" -- ALA Booklist ""Skulduggery Pleasant serves up a thoroughly satisfying blend of humor, magic and adventure. Once you've met Stephanie and Skulduggery, you'll be clamoring for a sequel."" -- Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series
