I jumped out a window after I saw this! Fair enough it was on the ground floor, but still... a window's a window. Anyway fair play Derek. Will keep me going until next Summer!😊
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG (repeat ad infinitium) I am so excited. You have no idea how excited I am. I started reading Skulduggery in my early years of high school. I basically grew up alongside Val! And now there will be MOAR Skulduggery!? *high pitched screams of delight*
Omg I'm so excited! Everyone's still asleep and I have a feeling I may have woke them up by literally screaming with excitement. It's going to be fantastic!!
OH MY GOSH THIS IS THE BEST NEWS EVER THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!! Your books are so important in my life and knowing there's going to be more Skulduggery Pleasant is the most AWESOME THING EVER!!!!
All aboard the hype train! Ten books in ten years is a furious pace of writing, Derek. I don't know how you manage it! Congratulations though on the new series.
you have no idea what joy you have brought into my life by writing the Skulduggery Pleasant books and I'm unbelievablyt thankful for that. I've always dreamed of a next book and I cannot believe that my dream is coming true. Thank you so so much! Now I'm startingt to count the days until the book is released - I'm sure it's 100% worth the wait. I cannot believe this! You're absolutely awesome and amazing! A pure god! The god of the writers along queen J.K. Rowling. I just wanted to say thank you for your wonderful books! Joyful greetings from a huge fan from Germany! (I read all your book in English. It's far better than reading them in German!)
Shutout to all the minions here! Today is a day to celebrate!
Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God I might actually die!!! This is the best thing to ever happen!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkk!!!! I might die!!
Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God I might actually die!!! This is the best thing to ever happen!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkk!!!! I might die!!
YES YES THANK YOU GOOD SIR YOU ARE A GREAT HUMAN YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
THIS IS AMAZING. THIS IS WHAT WE LITERALLY SCRATCHED OUT IN HOPES AND DREAMS AND NOW ITS COME BACK. I cannot believe this, thank you so much this means everything.
Definitely come back to Australia, man! Both in the real world and in the book. Convinced a bunch of girls at uni to read the books and now they can't get enough of it, so it'll be pretty awesome to see their faces light up when i tell them the news.
Cheers so much for this though. I didn't get across how cool it was to meet you in Melbourne a few years ago! If you read this and remember shoving a kangaroo in my face (suppose it happens all the time), just gotta say I got into Engineering/Science in the city like I said I would. Just so you know ;)
I just want to be here myself for once to give my sincerest of thank-yous to you, our Golden God, Derek Landy. I am ineffably excited about this new book!!
I have been reading these books since I was 11 and now I'm 19 I'm so so happy that there is a tenth book coming out! Best news ever I love the series so much!
... my life has just collapsed... ive been fired... the forum where ive spent lots of my time recently is being closed... my whole life has just... gone...
I wonder if this means he'll be breathing life back into the blog.
I love how there was a cover release for American Monsters on the down low with no actual blog post to go with it... and then he pretty much says "ah fuck it, here's another Skulduggery book".
What a jammy, suspense keeping, attention seeking whore you are Landy!!
I have been reading since I was 12, a lot of authors, a lot of series and a lot of books. Some emotional books. I never cried.
Derek Landy hands me Skulduggery 8 and 9 and the prick makes me cry! He ruined me!!! I have only gotten out of my book coma that was cause by book 9!!
Be warned Landy, if I shed a tear from book 10 to whatever number, I shall write you in something and kill you horribly and then hit you over the head with a book the next time I see you.
OMG....Thank you thank you thank you Mr Landy, hoping Donegan and Gracious are still alive. All Skulduggery characters are totally awesome, can't wait. Ronnie (age 12)
Can't wait for the best book ever to come out. When it does come out i am going to instantly get it. Skulduggery Pleasant RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LITERALLY CAN'T EVEN!! Yes! I used that sentence!! These books are my favourite series!! I love, love, LOVE them!!! I'm so happy!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Thank you, Derek for making something that I love so much even BETTER, which I didn't think was possible! I can't wait!!
Um Derek, you should *really* get your fridge checked out...
That's all I have to say ;P
This post is over. Well, Series 1 of the post anyway...
I saw the email newsletter notification appear & think my 1st thought was "So TDOTL isn't it?" followed by a shrug or 2 and a dry 'hmph', to be honest. I mean, I'm looking forward to it, and you'll probably find me in the obscenely-long queue-mageddon that is a Bluewater Signing.
Part of me wasn't 'that' surprised that TDOTL wasn't completely it, given its loose interpretation of how one goes about a final book in the series - loose ends are tied up, and new ones aren't created - but maybe I'm just being cynical.
For Season 3 of this comment, I'm going to remind you that SPI was NOT released in Sreleased in Summer '07, nay, it was released in APRIL of that year.
Due to nosediving ratings, exceeding my budget, and the cast wanting to move on to other things, I'm using Season 4 of this comment to wrap my coment up
I'm sad... But I'm happy... but I'm sad... but I'm happy!
That nine book thing didn't last long... but its ok. I was sure you weren't going to make more at some point at least... which is good, it gives it an indiana jones feel.
but there were questions that weren't answered, loose ends that were not closed... Derek, you seemed oddly satisfied by it and that made me upset... but I calmed down after a bit, and started to appreciate stories with loose ends and missing answers...
what am I to believe now?
Also I was finally calm I didn't need to have a heart attack every time you posted something in case it was new book related..... what is wrong with me?
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YOU ARE AWESOME! :D
I just failed my accounting exam, for a second time. i had 2 minutes left and the last question was one i knew how to do so i raced into trying to figure it out, but i got an answer that wasn't there so i chose randomly, then tried to go back and answer one i hadn't. It kicked me out and i automatically failed. You had to submit and finish. i've never wanted to die so badly before. There is literally no future for me except a waste of space, time and money... My mum's telling me to give up on Uni and get a full-time job. There is no way in hell anyone wants me for one. I can't even get a part-time job nevermind full-time.
There are plenty of things out there for you, it'll be OK. If you're considering quitting uni, perhaps you could check out changing subjects first, but not being able to submit your answers hardly consitutes properly failing anyway, imo - It sucks that it happened that way, but it doesn't make you a failure in any way/shape/form, and it doesn't mean you don't have a chance. Getting a job without qualifying at uni is admittedly getting more and more difficult but it's still quite common to manage. I know you are a talented writer and an artist too. You're intelligent. You're creative. You're young. You're not limited here at all in either choice or time, you've got plenty of both. I'm sorry that today handed you a plate of crap, but it's one in a million and better things will happen, whatever you decide.
I haven't had a job in 8 months though... i'm scrounging off of my parents. I'm almost 19 and they've grounded me again to get this coursework done. Failed my exam and 600 words into my essay for the 5th, my brothers birthday. i've got 1,900 to go and now that i've started, that's going to be a pretty easy figure but i can't write essays for shit i don't see the point in them! i hate the school system even more now because i'm one of the people that's getting fucked over by it. When the fuck am i gonna need accounting? accounting fucking sucks. ;-; If i don't have a good job i can't move out which i realllllllllllllllly want to do, i can't travel, i can't get married i can't have kids. If i don't get a job i will have no life...
Tresha: *blushes more* I hadn't thought of a prize yet.. *smiles up at him* Do you have a suggestion?
Michael: *has literally no idea where to go* *looks lost* *decides to go right and starts walking that way - it's as good as any other direction* *he has no money on him..* *he'll have to work it out*
Michael: *first things first* *ducks into a clothing shop, walking into the aisles* *grabs a hat off the stand, one that will adequately cover is ears* *needs something to cover his tail..*
Tresha: *smiles, leaning against his chest* I don't want anything, just you.
Michael: *sees a long trench coat which should cover his tail, hopefully* *grabs that too, slipping it on, putting the cap on his head* *glances at the counter and tugs the cap low* *sprints out the door, a loud "HEY" sounding out behind him*
Michael: *hears someone pursing and curses, running as fast as he can* *darts down a side alley, jumping onto a dumpster then climbing quickly up the fire escape*
Tresha: Anyway, let's get this lump of metal upstairs.
Michael: *uses his shoulder to break open the fire escape, albeit the wrong way, stumbling into the flats* *runs through, going down the stairs quickly* *steps off at a random floor, going to a random door* *bursts it open with his shoulder, turning and closing the door quickly* *breathes heavily, leaning against the door, listening to see if she lost the person*
Tresha: *takes his hand, holding the metal* We'll need to find a blacksmith..
Michael: *pants, staying leant against the door just so he can catch his breath* *looks around the luckily empty apartment* *quickly moves to the kitchen, looking for somewhere to hide* *can hear Al coming*
Michael: *chews his lip, shoving the hat back on* *climbs out the window, clutching the sill and sliding the window closed carefully* *looks at the drop, maybe 5 stories, but the fire escape is next to him, just a small gap away* *pushes off, falling, moving closer to the fire escape* *grabs the railing, swinging into the side and crying out, letting go from the shock* *lands on his back on the ground, all the wind being knocked out of him* *coughs and splutters, whimpering, slowly standing up, stumbling out of the alley*
Tresha: Then think of one for me *smiles up at him*
Michael: *it was quicker!* *wears the footsteps on metal and curses* *awkwardly half jogs because it's near impossible to run when winded and he has a cracked rib from hitting the fire escape* *forces his body into a run, ducking into a tavern, going to the men's room*
Michael: *stares at the cubicle door* *she didn't..* *looks up, window it is then* *stands up, breaking the window with his elbow, knocking all the glass away* *grabs the sill, hoping she hasn't got her gun out again*
Tresha: I just wanted a bit of privacy *kisses him gently, smiling*
Michael: *pants, running slower than he usually would* *stumbles down the alley way they first went into, groaning* *throws his hat further down the alley to make it seem he went that way* *climbs into one of those big dumpster things, hiding amongst the rubbish in hopes she won't check there*
Tresha: *leans against him, closing her eyes and relaxing* *listening to his heartbeat*
Michael: *groans, waking his head against the dumpster inside* *curses the fact she sounds so much like Alys* *jumps out, stumbling, running again, hoping for the best*
and here gentlebeings, we are witnessing the last breaths that blogland is taking. It's been a fun journey but it is more than definitely in its last year of evolution. After this, everything will start rotting and particles will decay slowly, making the amount of comments less and less every day. It's called the heat death.
Fluctuate? God no, this is the death of the blog haha. Just look at the steady decline, and not just in the comments but in the lack of posts too. The only reason there's still posts left to comment on is because the comments have slowed down to almost nothing.
On a side note Fera, have you kept up with Bleach? The ending is so awful it would be hilarious if it wasn't heartbreaking. I wonder if Chad has been fighting statues for ten years :')
Tresha: *leans against him, closing her eyes and relaxing* *listening to his heartbeat*
Michael: *groans, whacking his head against the dumpster inside* *curses the fact she sounds so much like Alys* *jumps out, stumbling, running again, hoping for the best*
Michael: *hides, clutching his ribs* *he can't keep running, it hurts too much* *they can't send him to prison, not with the ears and the tail, the mortals would freak*
OMG! You are the BEST!
ReplyDeleteYES!!!
ReplyDeleteA new skulduggery pleasant!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh god,thank you so much Derek!
ReplyDeletesome might say that the series should be left as it is, but I trust that you'll write a fantastic book again :)
I jumped out a window after I saw this! Fair enough it was on the ground floor, but still... a window's a window. Anyway fair play Derek. Will keep me going until next Summer!😊

Yeah, but at least Whales is closer to Ireland and England than he ever even got to the US!
ReplyDeleteYou could fit England inside Ohio. It's so tiny.
Back again! Anyone??
ReplyDelete( SNOooooooRRlaaaaaaaaaax )
ReplyDeleteYes, but it takes longer to cross England than most foreigners would assume because our roads aren't so great.
ReplyDelete^:P
ReplyDelete(That comment was missing the necessary emoji :P)
I think... Alastair is Westley, and Adra is Buttercup
ReplyDeleteI think the best reaction here was my nephew screaming YES I HAVE A HOPEFULLY NOT DEAD AUNT YOU CAN BE A GHOST!
ReplyDeleteYes, a lot of excitement is bubbling here. My sister moved home with my niece, nephew, 2 cats, 2 dogs and a female gerbil
whoohooo!!!!
ReplyDeleteBUSCUSE ME WHAT WHAT

I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS IM GONNA CRY

*sprints out the door, a loud "HEY" sounding out behind him*
Flauros: you have me
ReplyDeleteAl: *chases after him*
Tresha: then I don't need anything else
ReplyDelete*smiles*
ShopKeeper: *runs to the door*
THEIF!!!
Michael: *hears someone pursing and curses, running as fast as he can*
*darts down a side alley, jumping onto a dumpster then climbing quickly up the fire escape*
Flauros; *smiles*
ReplyDeleteAl: *chases after him*
Tresha: Anyway, let's get this lump of metal upstairs.
ReplyDeleteMichael: *uses his shoulder to break open the fire escape, albeit the wrong way, stumbling into the flats*
*runs through, going down the stairs quickly*
*steps off at a random floor, going to a random door*
*bursts it open with his shoulder, turning and closing the door quickly*
*breathes heavily, leaning against the door, listening to see if she lost the person*
**he
ReplyDeleteFlauros: okay
ReplyDeleteAl: *runs after him but keeps distance*
Tresha: *takes his hand, holding the metal*
ReplyDeleteWe'll need to find a blacksmith..
Michael: *pants, staying leant against the door just so he can catch his breath*
*looks around the luckily empty apartment*
*quickly moves to the kitchen, looking for somewhere to hide*
*can hear Al coming*
i no longer know
ReplyDelete(Are you okay Noelle..?)
ReplyDeleteFlauros: do you know any?
ReplyDeleteAl; *walks quietly *
Tresha: No I don't.. Maybe someone here can do it?
ReplyDeleteMichael: *takes the hat off, ears twitching, listening carefully*
*walks to the window, sliding it open, looking down at the drop*
Flauros; but who?
ReplyDeleteAl: *fets closer*
Tresha: one of the guys maybe?
ReplyDeleteMichael: *chews his lip, shoving the hat back on*
*climbs out the window, clutching the sill and sliding the window closed carefully*
*looks at the drop, maybe 5 stories, but the fire escape is next to him, just a small gap away*
*pushes off, falling, moving closer to the fire escape*
*grabs the railing, swinging into the side and crying out, letting go from the shock*
*lands on his back on the ground, all the wind being knocked out of him*
*coughs and splutters, whimpering, slowly standing up, stumbling out of the alley*
Flauros: we should ask
ReplyDeleteAl: *as he climbs out of the Windows she walks up to it*
*stares*
Tresha: Definitely.
ReplyDelete*walks into the kitchen, setting the metal on the table*
Michael: *hugs himself gently, wheezing slightly*
*walks a distance away before leaning against the wall, groaning, holding his ribs carefully*
Flauros: *smiles* you should still get a prize
ReplyDeleteAl: *races down the stairs*
*isnt crazy enough to jump*
Tresha: Then think of one for me
ReplyDelete*smiles up at him*
Michael: *it was quicker!*
*wears the footsteps on metal and curses*
*awkwardly half jogs because it's near impossible to run when winded and he has a cracked rib from hitting the fire escape*
*forces his body into a run, ducking into a tavern, going to the men's room*
Flauros: but what if you don't want to?
ReplyDeleteAl; *sees him and follows*
Tresha: *blushes slightly*
ReplyDeleteDon't want to what?
Michael: *goes into the men's room, locking himself in a cubicle*
*leans back, relaxing slightly*
*he has two choices, front door or window..*
Flauros: what if you don't want what I choose?
ReplyDeleteAl; *bashes down the bathroom door* come here Matthew!
Tresha: I'm sure I will..
ReplyDeleteMichael: *stares at the cubicle door*
*she didn't..*
*looks up, window it is then*
*stands up, breaking the window with his elbow, knocking all the glass away*
*grabs the sill, hoping she hasn't got her gun out again*
Flauros: you will?
ReplyDeleteAl; *cocks her gun* don't move
Tresha: I think you know me well enough to suggest something I'd like
ReplyDelete*smiles at him*
Michael: *grits his teeth*
*wonders how quickly he could climb out*
*probably not faster then she can pull the trigger*
*stays still*
Flauros: kisses?
ReplyDeleteAl; get down and come with me
Tresha: I like kisses
ReplyDelete*smiles*
Michael: *drops back down, unlocking the cubicle door*
*glares at her from inside the cubicle*
Go. Away.
Flauros: *smiles* have as many as you want
ReplyDeleteAl: make me
Tresha: *presses against him, hands on his chest*
ReplyDelete*kisses him passionately, smiling, sighing happily*
Michael: *growls but walks over to her*
*he can't do much else, not when she has that gun*
Flauros; *kisses passionately *
ReplyDeleteAl: now walk out of here
Tresha: I love you..
ReplyDeleteMichael: *glares at her but walks out of the men's room into the main room of the tavern/inn*
Flauros; I love you too
ReplyDeleteAl: outside ^says quietly*
Tresha: *wraps her arms around his waist*
ReplyDeleteMichael: *growls, walking outside slowly, looking for any chance of escape*
Flauros: *nuzzles her neck*
ReplyDeleteAl: now.. What to do with you
Tresha: *blushes, humming happily and closing her eyes*
ReplyDelete*walks backwards, tugging him after her*
Michael: *turns and swings his fist for her face*
Flauros; *follows* hmmmm?
ReplyDeleteAl; *didges*
Tresha: *smiles, leading him to their bedroom*
ReplyDelete*kicks the door closed behind them both*
Michael: *runs*
Flauros; *follows* hmmmm?
ReplyDeleteAl; *didges*

Michael: *runs past Al, sprinting away again, clutching his ribs*
*he can't let her catch him..*
Flauros: *smiles* what are you planning?
ReplyDeleteAl; *runs after him*
Tresha: I just wanted a bit of privacy
ReplyDelete*kisses him gently, smiling*
Michael: *pants, running slower than he usually would*
*stumbles down the alley way they first went into, groaning*
*throws his hat further down the alley to make it seem he went that way*
*climbs into one of those big dumpster things, hiding amongst the rubbish in hopes she won't check there*
Flauros: *kisses and smiles* okay
ReplyDeleteAl; *follows the fat*
Tresha: *presses against him, kissing his neck gently*
ReplyDeleteMichael: *stays as quiet as he can, waiting to hear her leave the alley so he can run the opposite direction*
Flauros: *moans slightly*
ReplyDeleteAl: come out or I'll shoot !
Tresha: *grins slightly*
ReplyDeleteAre you okay Flauros?
Michael: *narrows his eyes*
*she can't know where he is, surely*
Flauros: y yes *blushes*
ReplyDeleteAl; come on mstthew! *thinks* I'll give you something if you come here..
Tresha: *grins at him, kissing him gently again, kissing his cheeks over the blush*
ReplyDeleteMichael: *for some reason he doesn't believe her*
*call it common sense*
Flauros; I I l love you
ReplyDeleteAl: please *is almost begging*
Tresha: I love you too Flauros
ReplyDelete*smiles, kissing his neck again*
Michael: *closing his eyes, she sounds too much like Alys*
*he hates the sound of her begging*
Flauros: *sniles*
ReplyDeleteAl: *fakes whimpers*
Tresha: *leans against him, closing her eyes and relaxing*
ReplyDelete*listening to his heartbeat*
Michael: *groans, waking his head against the dumpster inside*
*curses the fact she sounds so much like Alys*
*jumps out, stumbling, running again, hoping for the best*
(I woke up with a cold at two am
ReplyDeleteMehh)
Feel better soon, Inky.
ReplyDelete(Thank you
ReplyDeleteNot long woken up again and I seem fine
But that'll probably change once I leave the warmth of my bed)
(Hi!
ReplyDeleteI watched more anime yesterday than in the last 19 years combined :O)
and here gentlebeings, we are witnessing the last breaths that blogland is taking. It's been a fun journey but it is more than definitely in its last year of evolution. After this, everything will start rotting and particles will decay slowly, making the amount of comments less and less every day. It's called the heat death.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you watch, kas?
ReplyDeleteEh, Blogland comments fluctuate. It happens.
ReplyDeleteFluctuate? God no, this is the death of the blog haha. Just look at the steady decline, and not just in the comments but in the lack of posts too. The only reason there's still posts left to comment on is because the comments have slowed down to almost nothing.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note Fera, have you kept up with Bleach? The ending is so awful it would be hilarious if it wasn't heartbreaking. I wonder if Chad has been fighting statues for ten years :')
(Hello)
ReplyDeleteTresha: *leans against him, closing her eyes and relaxing*
ReplyDelete*listening to his heartbeat*
Michael: *groans, whacking his head against the dumpster inside*
*curses the fact she sounds so much like Alys*
*jumps out, stumbling, running again, hoping for the best*
Flauros; *kisses her nevk*
ReplyDeleteAl; *hears him rustling and follows the sound*
Tresha: *hums happily, smiling, purring quietly*
ReplyDeleteMichael: *hides, clutching his ribs*
*he can't keep running, it hurts too much*
*they can't send him to prison, not with the ears and the tail, the mortals would freak*
Flauros; .8stops and smiles*
ReplyDeleteAl; please come out *fales innocence*
Tresha: *looks up at him, smiling*
ReplyDeleteMichael: *covers his ears*
*honestly he isn't hidden well, he's just sat very obviously behind another dumpster*
Mine?
ReplyDeleteFunny thing is I don't even have anything to dedicate to, did that on a whim. Next comment can have it.
