About the author

Derek Landy is an Irish writer and screenwriter. In addition to the bestselling children's/YA series of Skulduggery Pleasant books, a supernatural mystery series starring Skulduggery Pleasant, a skeleton detective, and Valkyrie Cain, a young female magician, he has written two screenplays that have been made into films: the IFTA award winning "Dead Bodies" and the IFTA nominated "Boy Eats Girl". Landy himself was nominated for an IFTA for Best Script.

He doesn’t like to brag about all the awards he’s won, such as the Irish Book of the Decade, or the Red House in the UK, or all the other awards that he humbly displays on his mantelpiece. He is also far too modest to mention things like the first book being a Publisher’s Weekly Best Book of the Year, but would like to extend an invitation to Oprah to pop around one day for tea, in thanks for selecting his book for the Oprah’s Book Club Kids Reading List.

Derek plays too many video games, reads too many comics, and watches too many movies. He lives in Ireland with too many cats. Occasionally he talks to real people, but only when he absolutely has to.

[Andy Waldron · Rating 3 out of 5]

[Myles Gerber · Rating 2 out of 5]

Not bad at all, but kind of a nothingburger. That being said I am still excited for the new run.

[Aaron · Rating 4 out of 5]

Not entirely sold on the direction Dr Strange is going in, but the Christian Ward story in this is a brief moment of awesome.

Somebody give Christian Ward the reins to Doctor Strange for a bit!

[Brian Kubeck · Rating 4 out of 5]

Everyday life and times of the supreme sorcerer told through five very short stories by five different writers and artists.
