Es herrscht Krieg! Doch diesmal sind es nicht die Gesichtslosen, nicht die Totenbeschwörer und auch keine durchgeknallten Zauberer, die das irische Sanktuarium bedrohen. Praktisch alle anderen Sanktuarien der Welt haben sich gegen die Iren vereint. Denn Irland ist eine Quelle der Magie, und das weckt Begehrlichkeiten. Da können nur die Toten Männer helfen. Jene unerschrockene Truppe von Helden um Skulduggery Pleasant, die schon gegen Mevolent gekämpft haben. Einer von ihnen ist damals gefallen, aber es gibt bereits einen Ersatz - Walküre Unruh, Skulduggerys erwachsen gewordene Gefährtin.

Sie war Walküre Unruhs beste Freundin ... Sie ist cool, sexy und schlagfertig. In Band Fünf der Reihe um den zaubernden Skelett-Detektiv Skulduggery Pleasant hat sie die Seiten gewechselt und seither fragen Fans weltweit: Was macht eigentlich Tanith Low? Tanith ist natürlich nicht einfach verschwunden!

Hochspannung in Extralänge. Und wieder warten extreme Herausforderungen auf Skulduggery und Walküre Unruh: Bisher völlig unauffällige Sterbliche sind urplötzlich mit magischen Fähigkeiten begabt und die wenigsten können damit umgehen. Aber einige dieser Neu-Magier entwickeln so starke Kräfte, dass sie eine blutige Spur der Verwüstung durch das ganze Land ziehen. Nur ein sehr mächtiger Zauberer kann ihnen diese unglaubliche Macht gegeben haben.

Allies turn to enemies, friends turn to foes, and Skulduggery and Valkyrie must team up with the rest of the Dead Men if they're going to have any chance at all of maintaining the balance of power and getting to the root of a vast conspiracy that has been years in the making.

There’s a reason the Necromancers don’t need her any more. And that’s because they’ve found their Death Bringer already, the person who will dissolve the doors between life and death.

Serienurknall in der Hölle! Wir befinden uns im Jahr 1703 in der Toskana. Dort hält sich gerade Skulduggerys Erzwidersacher Mevolent auf. An diesem wollen er und die Toten Männer sich endlich rächen, doch dann taucht der irische Großmagier Meritorius auf, der ihnen genau das Gegenteil aufträgt: Sie sollen Mevolent vor dem Attentäter Arbor Strickent beschützen. Denn Mevolent ist der einzige Zauberer, der die Porta dell‘ Inferno, einen Zugang zur Hölle, in dem eine zerstörerische Gottheit lauert, wieder schließen kann. Deshalb muss er am Leben bleiben - erst einmal.
