This book had sufficient writing, and Skulduggery was a fun, entertaining, and lovable character. And while none of the other characters were bad, I still didn't have much interest in most of them. But really the only thing that would bring me back for sequels is Skulduggery himself. The interview with him at the end of the audio was very well done, too.

There's nothing like a book with magic, adventure, murder mystery, and witty banter from a skeleton. The last time I read all of the Skulduggery Pleasant books was when I was in junior high and I had forgotten how hilarious they could be while still managing to include small heartfelt moments and exciting adventure. I really don't have many qualms with this, though I wouldn't say it was quite five stars.
Stephanie is a normal 12 year old until she inherits her uncle’s estate. Her uncle was an author and she soon learns that the stories of magic and monsters he wrote about were based in reality. Magic is real and her magical mentor is one Skulduggery Pleasant, a skeleton detective. Soon Stephanie is fully immersed in the secret, dangerous world of magic.
I LOVE this Irish import so much. It’s action-packed and hilarious. The banter between Stephanie and Skulduggery is my absolute favorite.

Приятна за слушане книга, която те грабва още от първа глава и не те пуска до самия край. Това че е предназначена за по-млада аудитория е плюс когато я слушаш на път за работа или когато вършиш нещо, защото книгата е така написана, че не изисква фокус на 200%
2,5-3⭐️
Das war leider nichts für mich!
Ich konnte mit mit Stephanie nicht verbinden. Sie kommt mir für eine 12 Jährige unnormal mutig und an manchen Stellen ganz schön komisch vor.
Die Kämpfe konnte ich mir nicht gut vorstellen, genau so wie viele andere Sachen.
Das Buch hatte ein paar gute Wendungen, es gab spannende Stellen und es gab auch ein paar lustige Zitate, aber ich werde die Reihe mit dem ersten Band jetzt beenden.

Pretty good, darker than I expected when the 13 year old said the 10 year old would like it - after listening to it, I don't think she would. But Miss 13 thinks it's great and compared to the other stuff she reads I'm sure it is "tame."
I usually don't like music in audiobooks, but in this book it seemed perfect.
May or may not continue the series.
