Publisher's Summary

Skulduggery, Valkyrie and Omen return in the 14th and penultimate novel in the internationally best-selling Skulduggery Pleasant series - and their most epic test yet.

In a matter of days, the world will change.

Billions of lives will be wiped away in a final, desperate search for the Child of the Faceless Ones - she who is destined to bring about the return of humankind's ancient overlords.

To prevent this, Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain have one last - terrible - option: the assassination of Damocles Creed. With protests stirring in the magical city of Roarhaven, with riots and revolutions on the horizon, Valkyrie must decide who she wants to be: the hero who risks everything for a noble ideal, or the killer who sacrifices her own soul for the fate of humanity.

The decision must be made, and time is running out.

Smashed it!

Derek, this story is nuts! I can't believe how many plans got overruled by the constant twists. Your a genius scene writer. Thank you for ramping up the Skullduggery banter as well, I could listen to your humour for hours and I was missing it more and more over these past few books. Can't wait to see how he gets through to her in the next one.
PS. Whether you still have the passion to write about this universe or not, you have brightened mine immensely. With much love and appreciate,
a fan
