About book Kingdom Of The Wicked (Skulduggery Pleasant, Book 7) (2012)

Skulduggery Pleasant: Kingdom of the Wicked is the 7th book of the series. It's the already the seventh, so you know it's ought to be good! This is an action/fantasy/mystery series. The story is about mages fighting for the balance and the safety of mankind. Valkyrie, a young mage, also, the decendant of an Ancient (creators of magic). She's a student, but she's also a detective in the Mage Sanctuary in Dublin. She's partnered with Skulduggery Pleasant. One thing special about him, he's walking set of skeleton. Together, Skulduggery and Valkyrie solved cases and saved the world countless times from villians like Lord Vile, Serpine, even god like creatures called the Faceless ones. In this book, mortals are starting to gain magical abilities, despite that they don't have magic in their genes. The mortals are either overloaded and in the end brought to their demise by the magic, or they survive. The ones that survive became powerful, and corrupted by their power. The detectives suspect that the mortals' new found magic comes from one source. After some searching, they found out that the source is this man named: Argeddion. The main villian of this story is Argeddion. He's a man with knowledge over magic like nobody else. He's giving mortals magical abilities claiming that he's bringing a new society that's free of war and conflicts. But, the mortals are not ready magic in their world, that's why the mage sanctuary stressed that magic cannot be revealed to any mortals.THe minor villians of this story is Kitana, Doran, and Sean. They are teenagers who were given magical abilities. They started abusing their powers, attacking whoever they want, with no hestitations, hurting lots of people. One interesting part of the story is that Valkyrie was grabbed in the arm by a "dimensional shunter", who's ability is to travel into other dimensions. Because of that grab, part of the shunter's magic was transferred into Valkyrie's arm, making her "shunt" into other dimensions against her will. In the other dimension, Skulduggery and Valkyrie didn't exist, so the villians that they defeated in their own world are not. The villians then introduced magic to the public, making chaos rise everywhere, the society became where the strong get to survive, and the weaks perish. (reminds the heroes what will happen if Argeddion introduces magic to THEIR world). This is a very fast paced book, not to mention the details in the fight scenes. Reading the book is like watching a movie, every bits and pieces of action are presented to you clearly. I recommend the book for readers of Action books, also mystery books that have twist endings. YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME. I just.. somehow expected that of course but ... I thought it to be more psychological and constructive but this.. shit.And for book. It makes me weep. With joy that this exists, for characters, mostly of laughter. This is a total rollercoaster. It is so full of action I don't understand why Expendables is called action movie. and yet he fucking work out to add love, thoughts and happy moments. ya, first books were amazing glorious funny rides. but this is complex dark and genius book.when I replay what happened in this ONE book I am stunned. You could manage to make a book from every part. he just throws it togehter and blows your mind
