IS THIS THE END?

The bone-shaking new trilogy continues – the latest adventure in the bestselling Skulduggery Pleasant series Vengeance is a killer.

The book version of the thrilling and innovative second Skulduggery Pleasant podcast In 1962, three sorcerers converged to do battle in a hidden chamber near a disused platform in the London Underground. Prophecy foretold that the victor would hold the very fate of humanity in their hands. Since then… nothing.Now, the people who are trying to find out exactly what happened all those years ago are being murdered – there is a killer coming after them, a killer with a plan – and their only hope for survival lies with Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain.Because when the end of the world comes knocking, our first line of defence must always be sarcasm.Unstoppable, withering sarcasm.

Skulduggery Pleasant is dead. Valkyrie Cain is cool. Omen Darkly is neither. On a desperate journey to recover her sister's lost soul, Valkyrie Cain goes up against the High Sanctuary itself, and there's nothing Skulduggery Pleasant can do to stop her.With Abyssinia's grand plan about to kick off in a night of magic, terror, and bloodshed, it falls to Omen Darkly to save the lives of thousands of innocent people.And as the madness unfolds around him, as hidden enemies step into the light, and as Valkyrie is sucked into a desperate, lawless quest of her own, he has no choice but to become the hero he never really wanted to be — or die in the attempt.

Skulduggery Pleasant is dead. Valkyrie Cain is cool. Omen Darkly is neither. War is coming.To avert catastrophe, Skulduggery and Valkyrie are sent on a secret mission that takes them away from everything they know, to a forsaken land of magic and grim, unrelenting terror. It is here that Valkyrie will have to fight the hardest — not only against the enemies who want her dead, but also against her own self-destructive impulses. It's only by crawling through darkness that she'll be able to once again stand in the light…

Skulduggery Pleasant is dead. Valkyrie Cain is cool. Omen Darkly is neither. In a matter of days, the world will change.Billions of lives will be wiped away in a final, desperate search for the Child of the Faceless Ones – she who is destined to bring about the return of humankind's ancient overlords.To prevent this, Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain have one last – terrible – option: the assassination of Damocles Creed. With protests stirring in the magical city of Roarhaven, with riots and revolutions on the horizon, Valkyrie must decide who she wants to be: the hero who risks everything for a noble ideal, or the killer who sacrifices her own soul for the fate of humanity.The decision must be made, and time is running out.

Skulduggery Pleasant is dead. Valkyrie Cain is cool. Omen Darkly is neither. 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.
