Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy

If there were an award for the book with a biggest, most excited reaction Skulduggery Pleasant would win it. It’s only been published a while, and all of a sudden, everyone is reading it, there are fansites, Derek Landy’s talks are selling out and Steven Spielberg wants to make a film of it.
It’s about a man. Named Skulduggery Pleasant and a girl name Stephanie (or Valkyrie Cain). It’s a strange storyline, but they need to get a Sceptre, which the Elders think is a fairytale, but Serpine has the Sceptre and getting it off of him is… funny, adventurous, cool, fun, exciting. My opinion is that everyone should read this book.
