Holy freakin’ moly. So insaneeeeee! I don’t know how Derek Landy does this! He is utterly genius!
Each & every single novel in this series has been life changing.
Living in these books has been truly & completely addicting... my goodness they are the most magical, original, ironic, sarcastic as hell, badass, mystifying, topsy-turvy, CRAZY, INSANE books i’ve ever read! i will never get enough of all of the magic, the supernatural & magic beings, the mysterious creatures, the secret magical locations, the various new dimensions (!), the constant new & each just as devastating as the last (even more so, actually... just when you think the ante couldn’t be upped... there it is) scrapes with Armageddon... you’d think there would not be anything even remotely possible that could surprise you... but it damn always does! This books are so WONDERFULLY weird, & are actually pretty horrifying & violent at times... but the banter, wit, and generally just freakin’ hilarious sarcasm filled narrative evens it all out. There are always new absolutely bonkers secrets being revealed & new plots slowly forming from book to book. These are truly all works of speculative fiction mastery!

This particular book took Skullduggery, Valkyrie, Dex, Tanith, Sauracen, a newcomer Luke Skywalker (
