Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy, Performed by Rupert Degas
This audiobook won the Odyssey Honor Award back in 2008 so I figured I'd give it a listen! The sound effects and voices were pretty darn cool. Stephanie is a snarky twelve-year-old who surprisingly is left a house and money from her recently deceased uncle. Next thing you know, a stranger at the reading of his uncle's will saves her life after some mysterious occurrences. Doors explode and strange creatures try to take her life. There's magic everywhere and Skulduggery Pleasant, her new friend, is, um, a skeleton. But a darn cool one. Stephanie makes the book (think a young Stephanie Plum) and the sequels ought to be just as good!
