Author Biography

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."

Review

"A high-intensity tale….Readers, particularly Artemis Fowl fans, will be skipping meals and sleep to get to the end." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Utterly charming…perfect for the Potter crowd."— Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Rich fantasy that is as engaging in its creative protagonists and villains as it is in the lightning-paced plot and sharp humor."— BCCB"Landy keeps the action brisk, his characters slightly macabre, and uses humor to take the edge off." — ALA Booklist"Skulduggery Pleasant serves up a thoroughly satisfying blend of humor, magic and adventure. Once you've met Stephanie and Skulduggery, you'll be clamoring for a sequel."— Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series
