Armageddon Outta Here (2014)
language
English
4.5 of 5 Votes: 3
review 1: As a filler for the ridiculously highly anticipated final entry in this series, I was always going to lap up something like this along with the many other fans of the skeleton decetive. And for the most part it gives you what you expect; the same charming writing that strikes an ...

review 1: I'll agree with another reviewer on here that it's difficult to write a DW story in short form because often you need space to develop entire species and planets. But this story is simply clever: the Doctor and Martha land on basically a storybook planet. I won't go into details ...

review 1: puuuuhhh! Band 3 kann mit seinen Humor locker mit den Vorgängern mithalten. Ich liebe die Dialoge. Sogar die Bösewichte! :D Das Ende spannt mich allerdings sehr auf die Folter! Was bedeutet, dass ich wohl oder übel auch Band 4 lesen muss. :D Ich würde es aber auch ohne den Cliffh...

review 1: I really enjoyed this book, some nice short (and not so short) stories to cheer me up after reading The Dying of The Light.As well written as the Skulduggery Pleasant novels, and links the books together nicely. It was nice to see things like how Valkyrie met Caelan, etc. Frequen...

review 1: Finally, a Skulduggery book that is close to amazing. Unlike the first two, this book offered mystery as well as the likable characters and dark humor that we have grown to love. The journey to work out who the villain was was excruciatingly annoying but strangely thrilling all i...

review 1: Gold, Babies and the Brothers Muldoon is a free short story set in the Skulduggery Pleasant world. In terms of chronology it comes at the end of the second book, though I read it after the sixth and it didn't feel out of place. It is very much stand alone, containing a self conta...

review 1: Increasingly it seems to be more about Valkyrie, her trials and her love life, as well as other characters. Skulduggery Pleasant, of whom the series is named after, seems to have become a minor character. Maybe this series shouldn't be called Skulduggery Pleasant anymore, since h...

review 1: Ok this is short - I mean this is shorter than some chapters in books but all the same it's a Skulduggery Pleasant book with all the humour and dry wit in it you come to know and expect from the series - its a standalone episode which does not really need to much of an explanatio...

review 1: I'm going to start by saying if you are debating whether or not to read this book: read it. Now if you want my opinion why then read on further.This book is really quite good, valkyrie is learning nemocracy and is supposed to be a great 'death bringer' but another rival or nemocr...
