Until the End by Derek Landy

3.0

oh derek landy
ive grown up with these books and ive grown up with the characters. hilarious writing and millions of twists you'd never see coming but it took me 300 pages to get into this one because of the sheer amount of characters. i'd draw a family tree if i could but i fear i'd die before i could finish. it's really hard to enjoy the series when you don't like valkyrie all that much and of course i miss the simpler themes but i appreciate the harry potter marvel esque way of adapting and incorporating modern life without making it too down with the kids. most of it feels natural. so so much of this series is brilliant
then again most of it is speech and everything moves very quickly.
i think if i didn't have such a sentimental attachment to my dearest skulduggery and his silly jokes i'd certainly rate this lower. the nostalgia that's bound up in all this makes me certain i'll read the next one and the one after that. and five stars for the last three lines i almost started sobbing. you are a very funny man derek landy but please stop introducing five new characters per page i'll do anything. in conclusion i love these books keep it up
