ReplyDeleteYeah, Skullduggery is really funny, I don't think anything could puncture his ego. He and Stephanie make quite a pair.
ReplyDeleteThere are actually to more books after this one, but I didn't think that they were as good as this one. I never actually finished the third one, though, and some people might think that they were good.
