Absolutely love this series. Mystery, magic, and a bloody Skeleton Detective. It is an addictive story that will have you opening the next book as soon as you finish the one before it. Fleshed out (mind the pun) characters with personalities, flaws, and fantastical skills will guide you through an amazing story. Dry humor is woven brilliantly through amazing action sequences. I don't understand how some people are saying this isn't for adults, there is something for everyone age 14 and up.Brought this collection for my 13 year old son as birthday gift as he really enjoyed the first one. 2 days later he is finishing book 4 and his 10 yr old sister is devouring book 2. Last night had cheers for 10 min extra reading time!Bought these books for my pre teen & he loves them !He described these books as "Comedy , Mystery , Action and Adventure , with the occasional saucy word thrown in , but not often !"He has been glued to these books since they arrived !A new reading sensation for the older child /teen group !Very, very, very pleased. This series is difficult to come by in the US, so I bought this bundle for my son, who cannot put these books down. Shipping was fast considering it came from the UK. All books in great, new condition. It was an excellent birthday gift! Thank you!good value and 2 weeks ahead of scheduled delivery.I bought these as a gift for my niece. The seller delivered these in record time. It made my niece very happy to have this complete set for her birthday.Well recieved collection. He is still reading it, and loves it.Absolutely LOVE Skulduggery Pleasant books. I actually bought them for my 11 year old son, but quickly got absorbed myself. Would love to see Skulduggery back in other, new adventures as well. Incredibly witty without being overly adult (it is written for tweens after all).Arrived before it was due to. Packaging spot on. Great price (24.99) for 9 books. All brand new and in cellophane. My 11 year old daughter is reading these at school so bought her them for a Christmas pressie. Very pleased :)Great boxset for my 8yr old daughter. She loves the harry potter books and this is a great series to fill the void left by completing those. She's only read the first one so far and absolutely loved the story and characters. Delivery great in terms of speed and condition.Bought these books for my 11 year old for Christmas to say he loves them is an understatement, he goes to bed early to get an extra half hour of reading in, brilliant books.Grand daughter was over the moon. With these books and has nearly read them all.The books arrived in absolute perfect condition. The outside box was neat and well sealed, with no dents or marks. When I opened the box, the books were packed well and there wasn't any wasted space in the packaging.Each book is brand new and hasn't been read, All in all, Awesome buy!
