About this listen

The ninth book in the original, jaw-droppingly stupendous Skulduggery Pleasant series.

Valkyrie. Darquesse. Stephanie. The world ain’t big enough for the three of them. The end will come…

The War of the Sanctuaries has been won, but it was not without its casualties. Following the loss of Valkyrie Cain, Skulduggery Pleasant must use any and all means to track down and stop Darquesse before she turns the world into a charred, lifeless cinder.

And so he draws together a team of soldiers, monster hunters, killers, criminals… and Valkyrie’s own murderous reflection.

The war may be over, but the final battle is about to begin. And not everyone gets out of here alive…

Liked every thing apart from the chapters that danny gant Jeremiah where in. The chapters i only liked the parts and chapters where every one is fighting and useing magic.
I would recommend this book to any sees it or feels it.
I gave it 5 stars because it had alot of action abit of romance. And the magic and the diferent voices the reader used for each character and the way he rased his voice for each character.

What a book!
