Third bone-breaking, belly-busting adventure in the bestselling series that puts the funny back in um funny bestselling series. That didnt really work, did it
If youve read the previous Skulduggery books then you know what the Faceless Ones are and if you know what the Faceless Ones are, then you can probably take a wild guess that things in this book are going to get AWFULLY sticky for our skeletal hero and his young sidekick.
If you havent read the previous Skulduggery books then what are you doing reading this Go and read them right now, so that you know what all that stuff in the previous paragraph was about.
Done Good. So now youre on tenterhooks too, desperately awaiting the answers to all your questions, and instead youre going to have to wait to read the book. Sorry about that.
Praise for The Faceless Ones:
A fast evolving plot and a great mix of scariness and humour Sunday Express
Fast and funny The Times
A magical mystery that grabs you from the first word and doesnt let go, not even when youre finished, and leaves you gasping for more like a fish out of water. Terrifyingly good! First News

Derek Landy lives near Dublin. Before writing his children's story about a sharply-dressed skeleton detective, he wrote the screenplays for a zombie movie and a murderous horror film. "I think my career-guidance teacher is spinning in her grave," he says, "or she would be if she were dead." www.skulduggerypleasant.com
