    "description": "Meet Skulduggery Pleasant: detective, sorcerer, warrior.\n\nOh yes. And dead.\n\nSkulduggery Pleasant is gone, sucked into a parallel dimension overrun by the Faceless Ones. If his bones haven\u2019t already been turned to dust, chances are he\u2019s insane, driven out of his mind by the horror of the ancient gods. There is no official, Sanctuary-approved rescue mission. There is no official plan to save him.\n\nBut Valkyrie's never had much time for plans.\n\nThe problem is, even if she can get Skulduggery back, there might not be much left for him to return to. There\u2019s a gang of villains bent on destroying the Sanctuary, there are some very powerful people who want Valkyrie dead, and as if all that wasn\u2019t enough it looks very likely that a sorcerer named Darquesse is going to kill the world and everyone on it.\n\nSkulduggery is gone. All our hopes rest with Valkyrie. The world\u2019s weight is on her shoulders, and its fate is in her hands.\n\nThese are dark days indeed.",
