OMG this is such a cool cover! Man! I wish I got his tie. Or his hat. But more importantly, Derek, you need to tell us when the character contest winner will be posted. I need to know!

AWESOME COVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!etc.

think about Tanith's brother. I think he would be an AWESOME character. Again, just food for thought

Jimmy is ainm dom said...

Since my character din't win (AAAAAAAAWWWW...) I think the winning character should be a little talking baby-man who has the ability to set his head on fire. That would be AWESOME.

-HB/Joe- said...

yes, aimee, we are.

well i am, at least.

At least i was....


NOO!! i will not return the badges! they are mine!!!!!!


No, wait, im still dead. Oh well.

-HB/Joe- said...

yes aimee, we are.

...

Well, at least i am.

...

Or i WAS, at least....


No way Lynn and Skyril! they will go to my grave in the sea!! U'd have to match skulduggery's abilities to be able to part the sea and then find my grave and then dig up my body, rifle my pockets (look through them) and then find the map i have stowed there and then follow the map to the sanctuary, just in time to see wax-figure phil lynnot(singing guy, u know) DANCING around the place. as u stare in shock, cleavers start up the can-can, and then springheeled jack jumps through a hoop and into a volacano. (commandered by volcaneo-gods)


the real badges are hidden in jack's suit. but too late, hes gone.

volcaneo-gods said...

i just had the best idea ever.
ok imagine this. you know "a very potter musical2(check it out on youtube) well what about "a very (skullduggery) pleasant musical"

" A character in Skullduggery pleasent once said something" -that character

volcaneo-gods said...

wait a second. the printing mistake. maybe it was left there on purpose. maybe its a speicial code. ill go search "just on google" go the the 52nd result and click on it 14 times.

volcaneo god in command out

" A character in Skullduggery pleasent once said something" -that character

volcaneo-gods said...

the result was the tv game just dance. when i searched skullduggery, just dance in on google it said there was 2,910 results . the first word on page 29, line 10 of skullduggery pleasent playing with fire is in fact cu gaelach. i have searched this in on wikipedia. nothing good appeared but when i put in hound of the black moon english version nothing came up again.
this can only mean one thing.
derek landy needs to get brand new proof readers

" A character in Skullduggery pleasent once said something" -that character

Synopsis Somebody said...

there are quite alot of printing mistakes in book 2 i can't remember the page but it says "and and" twice. also on my book page 144 there's this kind of weird clear plastic sticker thing not sure if it's only on mine...

Dan decided to go to the magical two headed which to see if she could turn him back into his human form. When he got to her gingerbread cottage made of candy, she said.....

OK, I know I already wrote part of this story, but this was too good to pass up. Bet you weren't expecting a visit from star wars! And that was the whole point of writing the stories anyway, to make as many as possable. So there!

Moonshine's story continued.

what she had in her hand was an old, ugly little figurine of a ninja leprechaun.
"The ninja leprechaun figurine!??" Dan gasped."But why would you give me one of your most treasured possessions?"
The witch smiled like she was trying to look sweet and said, "Oh my dear!You will have much more need of it than I will, for not only does it remind me of my dear departed husband but it..."

Haha darquesses I did *not* expect that!

In case you've forgotten the story, this is how it has gone so far:

dan loved ducks so much that one day he awoke to find out he turned into a duck. "oh no, i have turned into a duck".
Dan decided to go to the magical two headed which to see if she could turn him back into his human form. When he got to her gingerbread cottage made of candy, she said "Ah a little snack! :D I'll just go grab my cleaver and-"

The witch smiled like she was trying to look sweet and said, "Oh my dear!You will have much more need of it than I will, for not only does it remind me of my dear departed husband but it..."

(this is where insanity broke the chain and we have to assume that the witch just trailed off)

the witch, remembering that it was too dangerous to go alone, even though he had the leprecaun inja figurine,pulled something from her bag. "it is too dangerous to go alone. take this" on the ceiling a 8-bit box apear that said "ou receive kitten!" a 8-bit kitten jumped from the witches hand and onto dan's back. in its paw it held a tiny sword, ten the witch sent dan on his way.

and thats where we are up to.


Wow. Eleven comments in one day. i do think ive outdone myself. cheerio.

Kailz said...

Wow Derek, over 250 comments!! I think we have a record! Now you MUST write another blog entry, preferably onw that includes a little teaser quote from the next book. You could post one little teaser quote a month until Mortal Coil's release. Personally I think it's a really good idea. It's up to you and your people to say whether it's okay or not to do so for obvious reasons.
Til next time!

Lillian Faye said...

Derekkkk, please may you post another blog comment as it is very annoying posting a commment with soo many others. I missed the whole second page- I just read the first one!!

Joe I am sorry I missed your comments. You may be sergent but only if you return Sky's badges :P

COBPUDLGAP!! Woop. Oh and odile the oldie we put the 'bits' from the books because we thought it was a good idea lol.

By the way, what is this story thing?? I think I missed all of that... Confuzzled :P But still, love the idea and all. Very COBPUDLGAP ish :)

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

:D Yeah lynn, Darquesse suggested we should try to get to 300 hundred comments before Mr.landy makes a new blog entry.So Moonshine then said that she has an idea and continue the story ^.^.Joe's last comment tell how 'tis gone so far.Though I'm going to add some more in this comment.

Geckogirl that's an easy one 'tis most *definitely* coca-cola!!Pepsi is positively pathetic compared.

Moonshine's story continued!

using the pillow to hide behind.The troll laughed a cruel laugh and said in a voice that sounded quite hoarse, "You silly little duckie!I know your there even if you don't!...Wait...I guess you must right?"
Silence...
"Hey!"The troll said.the pillow didn't budge or quack at all and this confused the troll.Suddenly there was a crazed yeow and a tiny little kitten wielding what looked like a needle jumped from below the pillow!The tiny creature stared up at the towering troll and said, "

continues moonshines story:
I like cheese and all things moist"
The troll looked down at the kitten quite puzzled.
"What??? That is just completely random and stupid! That isnt a amazing war cry or anything like I expected you to say!"
The kitten raised one eyebrow at the Troll "Expect the unexpected!" it said and then lunged at the troll.
continue the story!

Unknown said...

STORY TIME! GATHER ROUND!!!
the kitten, yelled "NEVER MESS WITH ARDVARKS OR PUSS IN BOOTS!!!" The troll thought over it for a second and yelled "STOP" the kitten stopped in mid air and crossed her legs in a casual way. "what"
"did you steal te name puss in boots from shrek?"
"yes, yes i did"
"but puss in boots was a boy"
"so what?"
"oh well, lets get this over with"
a string popped out of the kitten's sword, and the dances battel started. three judges popped out from behind the pillow, and they said puss in boots won. the troll grabbed his chest as he fell and disappeared. it was than the space cats came down from the sky.

The Cellist said...

The story continued...
'Hello' the space cats said politely. 'Do you have any cheese sandwiches???' The judges looked shocked cos they had never, ever seen a space cat before (although they are quite normal) but the kitten said 'no' and they went back to their spaceship. Then the kitten

Geckogirl said...

the story continues:
Pulled a banjo out out of his boots and started playing twinkle twinkle little star. This made the judges gaze at the kitten in awe and started dancing merrily into the wood.
Suddenly just as the kitten was comming to the end of its song a alpaca jumped out of a bush and screamed "

Yaaaaa! We're almost there. We got reviews in faster than I expected. Its only been a day since I issued the challenge and we're already almost at 300. I'm thinking about upping it to 350, or maby even 400. BTW Lynith, the story thing was an idea thought up by Insanity to help take up space and reach my challenge of 300 reviews before Derek next posts. And Geckogirl, I am incredibly weird because I like nether coke nor Pepsi, only sprite and orange soda.
Well writing this I just thought of something. What if the necromancers try to put the remnant in Valkyrie, but accidentally put it the reflection and it stays in it for 4 days and gets stuck and becomes Darquesse! And then there's some extra twist, like you can't kill the reflection without killing Valkyrie, or something like that. Maby the reflection steals Valkyrie's magic, that would make an interesting story. Give me your opinion on my theory. I want to know how likely my ideas are.

volcaneo-gods said...

they said...

who shall continue

Rosie said...

Jedward said, 'hi' then performed a wonderful rendition of 'womaniser' by Brittany Spears. They then fought each other with lightsabers and Edward lost. John rode off into the distance on a llama and Edward proceeded to explode(shame, he was my favourite...) Dan the duck then saw Chuck Norris trying to rip off Skul's skull... and shot him with lasers that came from apparently nowhere. I then ate the duck.
Now...
Who is to continue?

Rosie said...

Oh yes, and Derek, if you don't post another blog within the hour, I'm going to assume that you are dead, and will take leadership of the ninja-leprechauns. And the first thing I'm doing is ordering them to steal Skulduggery's hat. That is all.

Poor, poor Dan! Sob. Sob. He was the best usted-to-be-human-but-is-now-a-duck ever! I'll never forget you Dan! Sob. Sob. Why, Roisin? Why? Sob. Sob.

OK, I'm done sobbing.

Wow! We got to 300 faster than expected. Alright then! I now challenge you to get to 400! Since everyone seemed to have so much fun getting to 300, and we need to punish Derek for not updating yet. Personally, I think we can make it to 500 before that lazy blob of a writer ever updates. We can make life mizrable for him! Mwahahahah!

Brief bought of insanity over.

omg omg omg
you guys are not going to believe this but i was reading my dark days book in my kitchen when i discovered something amazing.
you see my sister was singing hannah montannah. i hate that show. miley cyrus cant act which is why i was so shocked that she was in remember me. its not a musical. i didnt see it though. a girl in my class did. she sits beside me. she was reading a book by micheal morpugo. ive read a book by him called born to run. it was about a greyhound and all its adventures. i have a dog you know. i got it when i moved to laois. i used to live in dublin. im visiting my old classmates next week. we created a comic book series called food wars. it was like star wars but all the characters are items of food. i love star wars. thats why i like doctor who. i have a book about doctor who that lists all its monsters. theres twenty nine pages about the daleks. i dont think the daleks are that scary even if they wiped out the timelords. they have two hearts. cows have two stomachs. cows live on farms. my grandad lives on a farm. my grandad lives in galway. gayway is on the west side of ireland. irelands shaped like a teddy bear...

i forgot what i was going to say.

Story xD (Don't hate me Mr.Landy lol I'll at least try to make a little sense, but this is too funny to pass up!)

Take Indiana Joneses hat and throw it upwards in the general direction from which I came.It got lodged up there and I (I is Dan) said, "Ah well farewell hat..."Then Jones said, "Hey you lost my hat!"So we got into this huge argument and finally I said, "Shut up!" and decided to get out of this creature because 'twas getting quite hot.so I grabbed his gun and shot it upwards making a whole through the lava monsters head also causing his hat to fall down, but since it was a lava monster it would re-form if we waited too long.I grabbed Joneses rope and attached Joneses hat to it and tossed it up through the lava monster and began my assent!When I got to the top Indiana Jones started climbing, but the monster was regenerating so I...

STORY!
so i had to sacrifice Indiana Jones by blowing up the lava monster with a huge bomb. After the explosion, Indiana came out of the rubble. All his skin was burnt off and he was just a skeleton but he had his hat back on. Then Skulduggery, who is also a skeleton-in-a-hat showed up and he......

story
then there was a huge dramatic explosion. nobody looked at it because "cool guys dont look at explosions". out of the flAMES CAME THE JONAS BROTHERS. Skullduggerry said "omg. the jonas brothers are like totally awesome" then i realised it was askullduggery imposter so i used my duck powers (somehow i turned into dan even though i ate him earlier in the story) to create a time paradox machine(look it up) i then sent the imposter back in time and made him kill himself in the past. because of the TIME PARADOX MACHINE the universe didnt explode. but then the jonas brothers plugged their electric guitars into the TIME PARADOX MACHINE thinking it was a sound system. then when they played they were actually kind of OK. Yoda thought they were indeed TOTALLY AWESOME. BUT SUDENLY THE UNIVERSE EXPLODED AND I...

Okay, here we go:

Let's all go throw apples at Jedward,...

Lillian Faye said...

Lol loving the sequel dudes. But might I just say, if it was a musical where was the singing and dancing??? God people!!

Shall we start a new story?? With a different character?

Ok then :D

Story:

Once upon a time the lived a small tribe of giant polar bears. They lived in a huge cave far beneath the surface of the earth because allthough they loved the cold climate they hated walking about in the snow and getting their prize coats wet.

Now within this tribe was their only young. Two small twin polar bears. They were the only young because the polar bears...

Who's going to take charge I wonder???

Lillian Faye said...

Geckogirl said...

volacaneo gods omg! that is so weird! my sister is always singin hannah montana aswell and i sooooo think matt smith is well to young to play the doctor. and david tennant was the best doctor eva! *sighs dreamily* david tennant.....
anyways i think matt smith is still better than christopher ecclston ( who i thought was rubbish) and that donna and amy are the best companions (h8ted rose)
*cry* Rorry!no!!!

Geckogirl said...

lyniths story continues...
are all too busy obsessing with the simpsons to do anything else all day. One day one of the young polar bears (called colin) wandered up to the surface. but when he got there he found.....
continue please!

Geckogirl said...

jimmy is ainm dom song continued:
i found an alpaca in a bush....

Lillian Faye said...

Hahaa I am soooo glad that Rory died. Not just because I made a bet that he would die and get erased from time, but because he was ruining the shows. In my oppinion of course. He was always like, no we can't do that, that's dangerous, n stuff... He was a tag along lol.

I loved Rose I thought she was really good. But I doo like Amy, she's cool. Funny too. Martha was probably my favourite, but Amy is catching up...

I also thought Matt Smith was too young and too un-doctor like. But he has grown on me and I have decided he is allright. However I still do love David Tenant... I have a poster of him looking quite hot... ahaha!

Lillian Faye said...

Ahaa, my story ;)

he found... that up above on the surface instead of a rock the was a blue sheet and a big ball of burning stuff... Shocked and scared of this blue thing above him he noticed that there was a little pink...

Continuee!!!

Lillian Faye said...

Song continued:

And a guy next to thought him lush
I was quite sickend
but then my heart quickend
coming toward from straight ahead
there walked David Tennant

Geckogirl said...

btw lynith i agree that rory was kinda a tag along and he did ruin it but i was still so sad when he died and amy forgot him!!
song continued:
he gave me a wink,
i swooned but then started to sink,
i looked down and saw some quicksand....
continue please!

Inspired2Write said...

That is such a smart cover. Mr. Tom whatshisface has really really outdone himself. I don't think he top that.

Geckogirl said...

ultimate question of the day:
would you rather live without ben&jerry's cookie dough ice-cream or......sour cream&onion pringles????????
its too damn impossible to choose!!!!

Jimmy is ainm dom said...

Song so far....
Let's all go throw apples at Jedward,
And pencils are made of lead n wood
i found an alpaca in a bush
And a guy next to thought him lush
I was quite sickend
but then my heart quickend
coming toward from straight ahead
there walked David Tennant
he gave me a wink,
i swooned but then started to sink,
i looked down and saw some quicksand....

and that's it so far. Here's a new bit:

But luckily David had a rope in his hand.
He threw it to me and I grabbed on tight
And he started to pull with all his might.
But then along came Santa who kicked him in the head,
And I'm afraid to say David Tennant is dead.
CONTINUE IT!

Unknown said...

YAY I STARTED A FAD!!

Geckogirl said...

song continued....
"NO!NOT DAVID TENNANT!" i sobbed,
then i heard a voice shout "oh no! we've been robbed!"
i looked around to find and and dec,
but by then i was sinking up to my neck!

Dantea Dredkin said...

I think im just going fade out a bit, at least until this whole song thing blows over. I'm terrible with songs, plus I have nothing to say. So if I disappear for a while, don't panic.

Darquesse out.

When my parents bought the fourth book, I squealed, I couldn't stop smiling like an idiot and I nearly cried.

This was before I read it.

Imagine me when I found out the fifth book was coming out in the same year?
