Derek Landy
Derek is the beloved, prize-winning, number one bestselling writer of the Skulduggery Pleasant and Demon Road books, a few horror movies, and an increasing number of Marvel comics, including the Doctor Strange of Asgard and Infinity watch series. He is the recipient of numerous awards which he has modestly urged us not to go on about here (not really), including a Red House Children’s Book Award and multiple Irish Children’s Book Awards. His favourite colour is probably blue.
In 2024, HarperCollins published The Haunted House on Hollow Hill – a six-part, New York Festivals Radio Award-winning Skulduggery Pleasant podcast drama to widespread acclaim. Skulduggery Pleasant: A Soul Full of Shadows – the final book in the new trilogy – is set for release in early 2026.
