About
A Mind Full of Murder Synopsis
A bone-shaking new trilogy begins - the latest adventure in the bestselling Skulduggery Pleasant series
SIX YEARS AGO, THE UNIVERSE ENDED.
When it restarted, blinking back into existence, it brought with it a darkness that remains hidden from the mortal population.
A week ago - fuelled by unimaginable hatred and unstoppable rage - a masked sorcerer killed one of those mortals. Then he killed another. And another.
With their time running out, Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain must work to solve the puzzles the killer leaves behind before more innocents die, embarking on a journey that will force them to deal with the apocalypse they failed to prevent the first time around.
AND MURDER. LOTS AND LOTS OF MURDER.

About Derek Landy
Derek Landy is far too modest to talk about any awards or accolades his books may have won. He will not, for instance, mention the fact that his first book, Skulduggery Pleasant, won the Bord Gais Energy Irish Book of the Decade Award AND the Red House Children's Book Award, or that his second, Playing With Fire, won an Irish Book Award for Children's Book of the Year, or that his third, The Faceless Ones, is his mother's personal favourite. He could go on, all the way to The End of the World, which is the title of the story he wrote for World Book Day 2012, but he won’t.
He lives in Ireland with a variety of cats, a German Shepherd, and two geriatric Staffordshire Bull Terriers who keep peeing on his kitchen floor because they think it's funny.
