5 out of 5 stars Fun, frivolity that releases your inner child.   October 6, 2008
 5 out of 6 found this review helpful

This book is fast paced action and it delivers. If you're expecting an exceptional use of the english language then prepare to be disappointed. It is a fun and delicious fantasy story that combines many different elements the young girl on a quest, the oddball hero and the battle between good and evil, all used to great effect. It is not a pretentious book but a simple read no word weaving only action. But read this before bed and be prepared to have a smile on your face. I was left wishing I was Valkyrie Cain and I wanted to be 10 again so I could reenact some of the fight scenes without looking too silly.


5 out of 5 stars Best book i've read in years!   September 9, 2008

I am writing this review on "Skulduggery Pleasant" because no other book has made me write a review before.

Skulduggery Pleasant and Skulduggery Pleasant Playing with Fire was the best books I have ever read [and trust me most books do not grab my attention].

I got this book at Christmas, but I was too busy to read it. The next day I read a bit, then a bit more and a bit more and very soon I was stuck into the book. The book is funny, witty and scary.My favourite character is Stephanie.I think the second book is better than the first[but I still love the first one a lot!]because it has more comedy in it.I recommended it to five of my friends and they loved it.Skulduggery Pleasant Playing with Fire is a book recommended for all ages from 9-...!



5 out of 5 stars TOO GOOD!   June 14, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is my absolute favourite. It is full of action (espeicial the last bit) and surprises. I think it is a one-of-a-kind book! And there's 7 more books to come! TOO GOOD!


5 out of 5 stars AWESOME!   June 12, 2008

The series overall feel like a movie script, i mean the action sequence is great. Skulduggery's jokes and his style is just....way too cool desceribe. The first book has you glued to the series. The duo Skulduggery and Valkyrie are a comic duo. I'd recommend this book to anyone!

Although my love for it does make it difficult to look for any bad points at all. Too good! I'd give it 6 stars!
