The Moment the Series Turns Properly Dark
The Faceless Ones gives its apocalyptic premise more bite than readers might expect, largely because it refuses easy reassurance. That darker mood adds weight to the third book, while the wit and pace make it every bit as addictive as the earlier instalments.

He's dead. She's deadly. The bad guys don't stand a chance. The third book in the bestselling Skulduggery Pleasant series. You've seen it all before: some bad guy wants to bring about the end of the world. A few people get hurt, sure, but everything's all right in the end. Well, not this time…'A thoroughly satisfying blend of humour, magic and adventure' Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series
Ideal for readers who:
- Crave fantasy adventures where the end-of-the-world threat feels genuinely serious
- Enjoy stories that push beloved characters harder with every new case
- Like hidden magical settings haunted by ancient powers and terrible consequences
- Prefer witty page-turners that are darker than they first appear
- About The Author
- 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."
