DESCRIPTION:
"Practically perfect in every way." according to Charlotte Tesla. The second installment of the Skulduggery Pleasant series. I found myself laughing with the characters. It was witty, funny, and tense. With these types of books they give you 50 pages to resolve everything and you're freaking out how they could possibly do it.The humor was the same, and maybe even more funny than the last one. The plot left me stressed for the characters. If you're questioning whether to read this, then let me tell you, that it is a must to read this. I couldn't put it down.

It is a page turner. Once I started reading it is hard to put down. There is adventure & suspense.. This book is much like the first one Too drawn out. Could do with less detailed fight scenes and more with plot and storyline. This book is much like the first one.
