Derek Landy lives near Dublin. Before writing his children's story
about a sharply dressed skeleton detective, he wrote the
screenplays for a zombie movie and a little thriller in which
everybody dies.
As a blackbelt in Kenpo Karate, he has taught countless children
how to defend themselves, in the hopes of one day building his own
private munchkin army. He firmly believes that they await his call
to strike against his enemies (he doesn't actually have any enemies
but he's assuming they'll show up sooner or later).
The reason Derek writes his own biographical blurb is so that he
can finally refer to himself in the third person without looking
pompous or insane.
"An utterly charming debut, perfect for the Potter crowd."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
