Publisher's Summary

The seventh instalment in the biggest, funniest, most thrilling comedy-horror-adventure series in the universe…

Magic is a disease.

Across the land, normal people are suddenly developing wild and unstable powers. Infected by a rare strain of magic, they are unwittingly endangering their own lives and the lives of the people around them. Terrified and confused, their only hope lies with the Sanctuary. Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain are needed now more than ever.

And then there’s the small matter of Kitana. A normal teenage girl who, along with her normal teenage friends, becomes infected. Becomes powerful. Becomes corrupted. Wielding the magic of gods, they’re set to tear the city apart unless someone stands up against them.

Looks like it’s going to be another one of those days…

Cracks beginning to appear?

So far i’ve loved these books, i’ve felt like each book was like candy and it was just a joy to devour. I really liked this book right up until the ending epilogue. From the minute the reflection became a part of the story i knew something bad was going to come of it eventually. I was hoping the book would stay clear of the evil doppelgänger trope but unfortunately my prediction turned out to be right. Id much rather preferred them to have a sort of sisterly bond and they did touch on this aspect in the book but the ending completely ruined that. Aside from this it was a joy to read.
