Oh, and my publishers would like me to include the Amazon link so you can pre-order this wonderful, wonderful book. Now, normally I hate linking to ANYTHING that has to do with selling my own books... and this is no exception...
(oh, and I also have no idea how these words ended up in the middle of the page like this, but hey...)
This is the link:
Whether you use it or not is up to you.
PS
The colour for this one is shiny GOLD.
PPS
I think now is the time to applaud one Mister Tom Percival.

Mr Percival, you brilliant, brilliant man.
It's amazing.
I hope he's still here I hope he's still here I hope he's still here
Derek, I am thinking the same thing as my big brother here: What are those monsters?
Oh, I LOVE it!!! I mean, all the covers have been great, but this is probably my favourite hardback cover yet, together with the hardback covers of the first and fourth books (I wasn't so enamoured with Death Bringer cover, somehow).
Everything just ... works.
*admires*
*admires the gorgeousness that is Skulduggery*
*admires the artwork in general*
*likes the tag line*
I cant wait to see it in the shops cus when i see it, its MINE!!!!!!!!!!!
Cold. Blooded. Thriller

Trackshittaz....
That's the name of the Austrian group.
Yes I'm back. Just to say hi to Derek.
*waves*
Hopefully see you on the Aussie tour.
Im gonna go get my sis, she probably wont act like me but anyway......
Derek, when I see you on the Aussie tour, I hope you remember me!!!!
*dances to eurovision*
Derek, I HAVE to meet you one day!!!
Warning: I might cut a bit if your hair off :P
Cold. Blooded. Thriller.

Wait, are they going to be somewhere snowy??????
Dont answer that, i wanna find out
*screams like Clarabelle would*
As for what the monsters are, they're- ooh phone call
I might colapse, but you know, whatever. I'll do it in a cool way
Phone?!
Noooooooo! This better be someone telling you to realease this masterpiece now!!!!!
...
Alright then, Derek.
How are you, just off tangent?
Oh, and Derek, just so you know, your profile doesn't mention Death Bringer. Just a heads up, or a FYI. Whatever it'd be called
Im going to have to see for myself when it's released, arent I? Ah well. AT LEAST THRRES THIS!!! AAAAH!
*glares at Derek's phone*
Oh god I think jedward is next.
Oh, and Derek...
YOU ARE AWESOME! ALL HAIL THE GOLODEN GOD!
I'M SHAKING SO MUCH I CAN'T TYPE
*GOLDEN
Also, I've already preordered both the Kindle version on Amazon.com and the hardback on bookdepository, as soon as they became available (Amazon UK shipping costs are insane)... but somehow, seeing the cover makes it all the more real.
Derek, is China going to be in KOTW?? Not asking for detail, just a question
Ohhh...

I CANT WAIT TO READ IT!
*stops for a little bit*
Derek, is Val on the other side??????
*applauds Mister Tom Percival* I LOVE YOU BOTH!!
Oh, sometimes Val isn't in a cover. That doesn't mean that she ISN'T GOING TO AWESOMEINISE OUR BRAINS! AND THEN SKULDUGGERY WILL FULLY REAWESOMEINISE OUR SOULS!
Go Mr Tom Percival!!!!!!!
*starts clapping weirdly because she is STILL shaking*
I LOVE YOU BOTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I explode I bet there'll be confetti.
Also it has just occurred to me that those creatures only be "the wicked".
What do you think?
I WANT THE BOOK NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its gonna look SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pretty on my shelf!!
Tom, you could draw a piece of blank paper and make it look more awesome than famous artists could ever hope to.
Derek, you could write about two people talking about stock returns (I actually don't quite know what they are...) and make it so awesome that several people would die from too much awesome!!!!
oh dear lord that is awesome *dies from awesomness*
I suppose, Izz.
*body starts convulsing*
DONE! i just finished pre-ordering the new book!
*starts hypervetilating again*
yep, i agree with Izz, the creatures are the Wicked
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I cant believe im still seeing it!!!!!!!!!
I dunno. I read somewhere it's about people who suddenly devolp powers of gods. OH!
If a heap of people got it in the same area, then it would be a KINGDOM OF THE WICKED!!!!
No?
Oh and of course:
*presses button to play applause*
*is slowly devouring fingers*
MY EYES!!!!!!! THEY HURT FROM AWESOMENESSMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can't deny your logic, Nix
I've gone blind, the only light is this book!!!!
Oh, yeah, I read that SOMEWHERE......
I LOVE SP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY'VE ALREADY POSTED THE COVER ON SKULPEDIA
THAT WAS FAST
Magic is a disease.
Across the land, normal people are suddenly developing wild and unstable powers. Infected by a rare strain of magic, they are unwittingly endangering their own lives and the lives of the people around them. Terrified and confused, their only hope lies with the Sanctuary. Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain are needed now more than ever.
And then there's the small matter of Kitana. A normal teenage girl who, along with her normal teenage friends, becomes infected. Becomes powerful. Becomes corrupted. Wielding the magic of gods, they're set to tear the city apart unless someone stands up against them.
Looks like it's going to be another one of those days…
IF THEY'RE GETTING INFECTED, THAN THE LAND WOULD BECOME A KINGDOM OF THE WICKED!!!!!
just put the link on my Skype thingo
EPIC!!!!
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I WANT THAT BOOK NOW!!!
ITS GONNA LOOK SOOOOOOOOOO PRETTY ON MY SHELF!!!!!!
Yeah i read that before...

Derek?
Hi Kal!
Hi Kallista!!!
Derek, by the way, I saw your comment on the other post! I shrieked when I saw it... THANK YOU FOR SAYING HAPPY BIRTHDAY! AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING WE CAN PROBAB LY ARRANGE TO MEET UP!
I have another request for you now...
Will you please say hi to Amanda? Pleeeeeeease? Pretty please (although making the Please look more attractive doesn't help)? Or, even better, you could call her China Pleasant. She hates when people do that. But coming from YOU? That would be hilarious.
Oh, come on, Val. He didn't even say hi to ME.
Nor ME!
Well maybe he'll say hi to Amanda!
But... what about me? It isn't fair?
Yeah.
This was a good day though. A very very good day.
something about my share
Can't you see? I wanna live. But you just take more than you giiiiive
I've had enough now I want my share
La
I dedicate this page to Derek and Tom. Oh my god, Derek talked to me. AAAAAH!!!! And Tom gave us this wonderful cover!
Maybe he'll say hi to EVERYONE, particularly you guys
