The Dying of the Light

Skulduggery Pleasant, Book 9

By: Derek Landy

Narrated by: Stephen Hogan

He’s dead. She’s deadly. The bad guys don’t stand a chance.

The ninth book in the bestselling Skulduggery Pleasant series.

Following the loss of Valkyrie Cain, Skulduggery Pleasant must track down Darquesse before she turns the world into a charred, lifeless cinder – and so he draws together a team of soldiers, monster hunters, criminals and Valkyrie’s now murderous reflection.

Not everyone gets out of this alive.

‘A thoroughly satisfying blend of humour, magic and adventure’ Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series

An amazing story with a great narrator

I loved this book!

I’ve been reading the SP series since I was little and they’re just one nonstop thrill ride after another, this book is no exception! I loved it! And in this series the narrators change around A LOT, but I really like the current one.
