Publisher's Summary

Books 7, 8 and 9 in the SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT series – known collectively as THE DARQUESSE TRILOGY, Derek Landy's fantastically imaginative series about our favourite dead detective.

KINGDOM OF THE WICKED
Across the land, normal people are suddenly developing wild and unstable powers. Terrified and confused, their only hope lies with the Sanctuary. Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain are needed now more than ever.

LAST STAND OF DEAD MEN
War has finally come, but it's not a war between good and evil, or light and dark – it's a war between Sanctuaries. Allies turn to enemies, friends turn to foes, and Skulduggery and Valkyrie must team up with the rest of the Dead Men.

THE DYING OF THE LIGHT
The War of the Sanctuaries is over, but not without its casualties. Following the loss of Valkyrie Cain, Skulduggery Pleasant must use any and all means to track down and stop Darquesse before she turns the world into a charred, lifeless cinder.

Great story only if you include all the other books.

This is the 9th (12th) and final entry in the Skulduggery Pleasant series (at least it was until the otherwise great writer decided to dig up that grave). The overall story and world building done in SP is amazing, but I would say this final book is by far the worst. I think it was just an inevitability of power crawl in a magic book that was originally set in the dark underbellies of Dublin, but then eventually exploded into world threatening catastrophes every single year.
