Until the End
The second cycle of the internationally bestselling Skulduggery Pleasant series comes to a thrilling end. You are not ready…
The Faceless Ones have returned to our universe. The bad guys have won.
With the end of everything just days away – and no longer able to rely on Valkyrie Cain – Skulduggery must make allies of enemies if he's going to stand any chance of saving what's left of the world. And just when things are looking their bleakest, they manage to get even worse, with Omen Darkly suddenly having to step up when his brother, the Chosen One, falls.
There's a lot going on. Most of it is bad. Sorry about that.

Derek Landy
In the world of children's fantasy fiction, few characters crash through the pages quite like a wisecracking, sharply dressed skeleton detective—and few authors would dare make that their literary calling card. But Derek Landy did, and in doing so, redefined the limits of what middle grade and teen fantasy could look like.
A former screenwriter from Ireland with a background in martial arts, Landy didn’t arrive in publishing by the usual route. His Skulduggery Pleasant series kicked open the door in 2007 with a swagger, blending fast-paced supernatural action with razor-edged humor and surprisingly tender moments of grief, loyalty, and growth. Readers came for the undead sorcerer; they stayed for Valkyrie Cain, the fierce, flawed teenager at the heart of the story—and for a world that made even apocalypse scenarios feel strangely addictive.
Skulduggery Pleasant
Imagine a world just beneath our own—a world where ancient magic pulses through forgotten alleyways, secret organizations wage silent wars, and the only thing standing between humanity and chaos is a trench-coated skeleton with a razor-sharp wit. That’s the stormy heart of Skulduggery Pleasant, a genre-bending fantasy series that smashes together dark magic, quickfire dialogue, and the kind of world-building that lingers long after the last page.
Skulduggery Pleasant consists of seventeen primary books, and includes four additional books that complement the series but are not considered mandatory reads and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
