Skulduggery Pleasant The Faceless Ones by Derek Landy


Skulduggery Pleasant, is a fire throwing, wise cracking, snappy dresser detective that will do anything necessary to stop the faceless ones, a bunch of immortal gods that can only be destroyed with the Scepter (a weapon that can destroy anything in its path). Oh ya Skulduggery Pleasant is also dead. With the help of his partner, Valkyrie Cain, a Elemental like her trainer Skulduggery Pleasant, they will uncover the mystery of the deaths of all the teleporters in the world. Only one 17 year old teleporter with no training is left and is in danger.


Soon after Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain find the teleporter and brought him to safety an old friend comes back from the grave (or from being a statue) and togetter they will save the world but lose a dead friend.
I like this book because it has a lot of mystery that turns into unexpected answers, fantasies with a fire throwing skeleton, and adventure with hand to hand combat in it.

The 39 clues No.5 the black circle by Patrick Carnan*****


The 39 clues is a book about a boy Dan and his older sister Amy. They are on a global hunt for their family's power which was hidden in the form of 39 clues. It's like a treasure hunt. Only with all the clues put together will they bring back their family's long lost power over the WORLD! The clues are normal materials like amber ,iron solute,tungsten,zinc,clovers and much more. Like all treasure hunt there are rivals like the Holts, Jonah wizard, the Kaberas and other people. There is only one rule Trust nobody
In this book Amy and Dan get a strange telegram from NRR(Nataliya Ruslanovna Radova, they don't know that until the end of the book)and now are deep in Russia. Away from the only trustworthy adult and cat they know. They also had to team up with the Holts. They also had to infiltrate a Lucian stronghold just to know to have 1 gram of melted Amber.

The 39 Clues



I am going to tell you about Amy and Dan Cahill in a book called the 39 clues One false note. It has many authors but this ones author is Gordon Korman. The thing about them is that their both different. Dan is the troublemaker and crazy collector while Amy is a bookworm and a student.
Dan is 1 year younger then Amy and Amy is twelve.
The main problem in the story is that Amy and Dan are in a race to find their family's power-a secret that can be found by assembling 39 Clues. Those are hidden all around the globe. So this was a treasure hunt. But what a treasure hunt- spanning oceans and continents, withe nothing less than world domaination as the prize. Yet high risks. Their rivals would stop at nothing to defeat them.
Their compitistion are alot of people.

Derek Landy

Derek Landy is amazing guy. He doesn't keep his imagination locked up but let's it help him. He is also a black belt in Kenpo Karate, he has taught countless children how to defend themselves, in the hopes of building his own private munchkin army. He firmly believes that they await his call to strike against his enemies (he doesn't actually have any enemies, but he's assuming they'll show up sooner or later).

This book is about how an average girl named Stephanie gets tangled up in a dangerous and magical world. If it wasn't for her Uncle's old friend Skulduggery Pleasant a walking talking fire throwing skeleton she would have been killed, vampire chow or killed. (For those who don't have any imagination there is a picture of Skulduggery Pleasant on your right.) Now Stephanie,Skulduggery Pleasant and some of his friends must find a ancient, unstoppable weapon before Nefarian Serpine an evil sorcerer gets it. Nefarian Serpine also killed Skulduggery Pleasant in a war before he became a walking talking fire throwing skeleton.
