I was hoping to see Skulduggery without Valkyrie, to learn more about the Dead Men and read a story that had a real impact on who Skulduggery is today, perhaps one of the many stories hinted at in the books, something that made the Dead Men, the Dead Men, y’know? And this isn’t that. Really, this is less a prequel and more a time travel adventure. I have always been a big fan of the Skulduggery Pleasant universe and book series and so it's always nice to have new releases following the end of a Phase of the main books even though this wasn't anything incredible or innovative, it did keep me entertained and having a good time whilst I read it.
