Author Bio
Derek Landy spends his time writing the Skulduggery Pleasant series which includes Skulduggery Pleasant, Playing With Fire, The Faceless Ones, Dark Days, Mortal Coil and now, the sixth book, Death Bringer.
He is also working on The End of the World. That, by the way, is the title of his World Book Day book for 2012, not an evil plot. He is also pondering the final Skulduggery trilogy, books seven, eight and nine. He knows exactly how it is all going to end. But he won’t tell us yet.
About Derek's Latest Book - Skulduggery Pleasant: Death Bringer
The sixth instalment in the historic, hysterical and horrific Skulduggery Pleasant series. Think you’ve seen anything yet? You haven’t. Because the Death Bringer is about to rise…
Join Skulduggery Pleasant, the smartly dressed dead guy and mentor to his not‐so‐innocent sidekick, who used to be a twelve year old girl called Stephanie Edgeley way back when they first met. Now she’s a bad‐ass heroine who can kick evil very hard in the face – almost as hard as Skulduggery himself. This doesn’t stop evil and his minions coming back for more.
The Necromancers no longer need Valkyrie to be their Death Bringer, and that’s a Good Thing. There’s just one catch. There’s a reason the Necromancers don’t need her any more. And that’s because they’ve found their Death Bringer already, the person who will dissolve the doors between life and death. And that’s a very, very Bad Thing…
Mortal Coil, the fifth title in the series, was the biggest Skulduggery yet. It sold an incredible 56,000 hardbacks in the lead up to Christmas 2010. It was No. 2 in the children’s hardback bestseller list on launch and it won the Bord Gais Irish Book of the Year.
DEATH BRINGER, the sixth book in the bestelling series, is bigger, badder and funnier than ever before. It will recruit thousands of new members to Derek’s munchkin army and is an absolute must have for his existing fans.
