What a fun book!!! I really love the character of Skulduggery, and I've come to like Stephanie's character a lot more in my second reading.

That was a really solid middle grade book while still being entertaining to read as an adult.

My daughter is a big fan of the series and gave me the first one to read.

The series has a lot of potential and I can see why she likes it.
