    The Screaming Staircase af Jonathan Stroud (nessreader)
    nessreader: strong likable girl heroes, the trappings of gothick (walking skeleton in skulduggery, ghost exorcism business in lockwood) without feeling creeping horror; the drama moves too briskly for that and the heroes take action rather than brooding

I thought I might not love this as much as I used to but I need not have worried. I loved it just as much as I did the first couple times. ( )
  Fortunesdearest | Feb 2, 2024 |
I don't know. I wanted to like this book, but it felt kind of derivative. You have: (1) Names that evoke character traits (2) A magical world kept secret from the normal human world (3) A super evil villain bent on taking over the world just because he feels like it and (4) A kid caught in the middle who's got a special connection to the magic world.

Outside of that there are these facts: (1) Said special kid is not an orphan (2) Adult hero is a detective and (3) The story doesn't take itself all that seriously most of the time.

So I didn't love it, but I think I'm being overly critical, so I'll split the difference and say it was worth a read but there's no need to put it at the top of your list.

Oh, and I've heard that the audio is better than the book because of the Irish accents. ( )

A rollicking and inventive tale of magic and a plot to doom the world, being fought by a skeleton detective and the young girl who accompanies him. Great fun.. ( )

The audio version is really fun! ( )

3.5 Stars rounded up to 4

Well that was incredibly funny!

The title character, Skulduggery Pleasant, was the highlight of this book for me. That being said, all of the characters were interesting and engaging. I enjoyed the witty banter, the fun magic, and how the mystery unfolded. Very enjoyable! ( )

Amy Sisson (VOYA, August 2007 (Vol. 30, No 3))
Considering how many fantasy novels are imported into the U.S. these days, one hardly expects freshness and originality, so this Irish author's debut novel is a very pleasant surprise. Twelve-year-old Stephanie Edgley is perplexed when her eccentric Uncle Gordon dies, leaving her his vast estate. She is utterly astonished to find that his closest friend is a walking, talking skeleton who also happens to be a well-dressed, hard-boiled detective named Skulduggery Pleasant. Intrigued by Skulduggery's dangerous world of magic, Stephanie ignores his protests and begins tagging along on his adventures. Before long, she encounters a troll-killing warrior named Tanith Low, vampires completely unlike those about which she has read, an evil henchman made mostly out of paper, and many other wonders and perils. Quite simply, this book is designed to appeal on every level. The book's cover, the illustrated drop caps that lead off each chapter, and the narrative's tone give it a graphic novel sensibility, even though it is really almost four hundred pages of straight text. Stephanie displays wisdom and courage beyond her years, and as such, will appeal to older teen readers as well as younger ones. Stephanie and Skulduggery's witty repartee is most enjoyable, and the pacing is fast, with constant action and fight scenes during which the author neither sugarcoats the violence nor revels in it unnecessarily. This book likely will be a big hit, and thus belongs in every library that serves young adult readers.

This book is dedicated to my parents, John and Barbara.
Dad - this is for your bizarrely unwavering support and unflinching faith.
Barbs - this is for that look on your face when I told you the good news.
I owe you absolutely everything, and y'know, I suppose it's entirely possible that I feel some, like, degree of affection toward the two of you...

Gordon Edgley's sudden death came as shock to everyone -- not least himself. One moment he was in his study, seven words into the twenty-fifth chapter of his new book, And the Darkness Rained upon Them, and the next he was dead. "A tragic loss," his mind echoed numbly as he slipped away.
