SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT: Derek Landy: HarperCollins: 2007: YA: 400 pagesThe cover of this book says it all, it shows Skulduggery-a gun toting skeleton in a snappy suit-and then states "and he's the good guy"
I listened to this book, something that I would highly recommend. The story is set in Ireland and the reader's slight Irish accent and low, silky voice is perfect. The story starts with 12 year old Stephanie attending the funeral of her beloved Uncle. When she meets a real live skeleton and bad things start happening to her, she quickly realizes her life is going to change. Stephanie is swept into a world most humans hope to never see. Vampires, magic, action, horror, this book has it all. The story is fast paced, and Skulduggery's sarcastic humor and dead-pan delivery will keep you highly entertained.
