    Good, could have been better
  

*by H***A on Reviewed in India on 13 April 2021*

Derek Landy, as always, is an amazing writer, the stories he has come up with are consistently mindblowing, but book 14, dead or alive, is more a miss than a hit, he writes nearly 30 characters into a single book, and although the world feels populated, I can't help but get the impression that the book was all over the place, and didn't follow a straight line from start to end

Exactly what it says in the title. Ohhhhh. Myyyyy. Goooooood.Hi guys, just to warn you this review might have spoilers (I mightn't be able to help it). Yeah, my other SP reviews are very big and opinionated and have WAY too advanced vocabulary for an early-teens girl (who somehow can't spell normal words), but I'm pretty sure this one will just be a whole lot of capslocks and fangirl.  I have a LOT of feelings on this book. I really want the next book because I need answers, and I need to get the end of the series, but I really do not want the next book because I know those answers are not going to be good, and also I don't want this series to end! Sadly…OK, about the actual book.In fangirl language: ohmygodicantiliterallycannotwhatthehellohmygodashaosjfbckslmsneisjebdijustcantAnd in English:W.O.W.Well, I thought that after Seasons Of War things could not get better. I was proved wrong. But for once in my life, I did not mind in the least. Actually, I was quite happy about it! Fourteen books later, queen Valkyrie Cain reigns on. I love her badassery, confidence and awful-awesome sense of humour, which has never faded since the start of the series. Also, she was the first bisexual book character I'd ever read about, which really meant a lot. But after that ending… If we've lost Valkyrie, I think I might die.And of course we have our title man, Skulduggery Pleasant. I feel like he has… um, matured, is that the right word, a lot since book one. Just as Valkyrie did, only her 500 or something so that is impressive. I love how his character has changed, but yet that recklessness and hilarity still stays the same. It wouldn't be Skulduggery without Skulduggery :)Sebastian Tao has actually become a pretty important character. Hes an idiot. But I think whenever Landy starts writing a new character, I feel like the default starter is: idiot. Really, I think thats all we can say about the adoptive father of mini Darquesse: I  D  I  O  TAnd I guess the same goes for Omen Darkly. (Just saying: Auger oh my god what!? I honestly am still in shock, even thought this review is super late, because OMG AUGER!) Never is actually one of the only two gender-fluid/non-binary characters I have ever discovered, with Double Trouble from She-Ra (another side not: if ur reading this, I command you to watch Netflix's She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, it is indescribably fantabulous and Catra & Adora are godesses). I'm really happy that I managed to even find two; and I love Never's self-confidence, its probably what makes them such a significant character for me. On Omen Darkly: yet another idiot, but an admirable idiot. He got really brave recently is all I'm going to say, and he's my favourite after Valkyrie.And … oh dear. Um, I've run out of characters.Does that mean I have to review the story?Oh dear god.Well. Uh. Ehm. Eee. Ah. So.I think the best way to describe this storyline is a 50-kg bag of bricks to the chest, or a couple of REALLY hard smacks in the face. If you read this book bewarned: it is gonna hurt like hell. I felt a little like oh come on at the end, because (using an old trick of mine to avoid spoilers, if u want to know the *s u'll have to read the book), I mean, they've spent a good fifteen books fighting ***************, and after ALL that… Oh well, at least they tried. Oh: I remembered another character- Coda Quell. I really dont like him. Go Militsa go.Anyways, Dead or Alive was killing me alive, because I was on tenterhooks the whole way. I loved the future vision, even if it was a little sad, and ****** was a really interesting character, even tho Im glad she couldn't happen. Altogether it was one of the best plots yet, full of twists and cliffhangers.As always, it was hilarious, entertaining, gripping and exciting, and this time it triggered my fangir side too (ohmygodicant). Definitely definitely definitely a million times worth reading!Yours truly,The Bookworm on The Hill xxxIf you enjoyed this series/book, you should read/watch:Six of Crows books by Leigh BardugoShe-Ra and the Princesses of Power, on NetflixThrone of Glass books by Sarah J. MaasHarry Potter books by JK RowlingHarry Potter moviesThe Hunger Games books by Suzanne Collins
