Dead Men Talking

by purplejabberwock

The Dead Men: Eight of the most powerful sorcerers in Mevolent's war.They're also eight of the craziest.NOTE: Due to the release of the eighth book, we now have a timeline for the Dead Men becoming a unit! Which means that some of these stories are either defunct entirely or need a revamp to line up with canon. So while I'm going to leave this file up for nostalgia reasons, I'm going to go ahead and remake 'Dead Men Talking' under the canon guidelines.

Ghost Stories of a Dead Man

by Celemion

"There was no hint of emotion in Skulduggery’s movements or on that white skull of his. The grin stayed fixed, the sockets empty, and it seemed to float in the darkness like death incarnate, a force too powerful for any man to control. He walked apart from them, silent. A ghost, it seemed, even to himself."There's a war going on, and everyone has stories to tell. Skulduggery Pleasant, the miracle soldier, is one of them.

Unexpected

by Lex_of_SHIELD

When Valkyrie Cain is accidentally sent back in time to the 1500s, she can't get back no matter how hard she tries. Now stuck in the past, she creates a new name and a new face and a new backstory so no one finds it odd that they met her in the past as a thirty year old woman and the future as a teenager. Of course, her being Valkyrie Cain, nothing goes as expected, so when something that she definitely didn't expect to happen happens, she realises that there is much more to her trip to the past than meets the eye.

Skulduggery Pleasant

by Deggon (Dagora)

Set just before Darquesse recreates the universe after Obsidian erases it.Original idea!Basically, Darquesse brings everyone back as their past selves to react to the future. I'll try to keep all characters as cannon as possible, but I'm not as good a writer as Derek Landy.Skulduggery Pleasant and characters within belong to Derek Landy!
