And yeah, I feel you on Skulduggery Pleasant. I think I spent a good week just being sad and depressed about character deaths, and the fact that it was officially over. It took me a few months to properly enjoy another book (so, lots and lots of one and two stars) so I've probably read this series twice since it finished. Actually, since I found it in October of 2013, I've reread it more times than I can remember. I know passages by heart. Oh my gosh it hurt when it ended. I still miss it and wish it would continue, or that Derek could write spin-offs or something. )':

Hopefully this series will be almost as amazing as Skulduggery (because it can never be beat). As much as I also adore Harry Potter (2nd fave) and Bartimaeus (3rd), I'm actually hoping Demon road will be so awesome it takes second place. (less)

My 12-year-old daughter who loved the Skullduggery Pleasant books wants to read this next. Is the language/sexual content/scariness at the same level as Skullduggery Pleasant, or would this one be too much for a 12 year old?

It is more slightly mature than SP in all of the above categories, and sequels more so. A twelve year old should be fine , if they have no probs with skulduggery. It all depends on the individual although, I was very mature for my age. Hope you enjoy as it is a fabulous book! (less)

Are there any books similar to this other than the Skullduggery Pleasant series?

For paranormal humour I recommend The Charley Davidson series by Darynda Jones. She's a snarky adorable grim reaper.

Nothing instantly comes to mind in regards to Landy's delicious gore.(less)

Would this book be okay for a thirteen year old?

Kaitlyn Yeah, I would say so. There’s not really much mature content in the story. It’s a bit dark and not a light hearted read, but should be fine.

At least 13 or a mature 12 year-old would be the age rating I'd go for.(less)
