Relation As Books The Whispering Skull (Lockwood & Co. #2)

In the six months since Anthony, Lucy, and George survived a night in the most haunted house in England, Lockwood & Co. hasn't made much progress. Quill Kipps and his team of Fittes agents keep swooping in on Lockwood's investigations. Finally, in a fit of anger, Anthony challenges his rival to a contest: the next time the two agencies compete on a job, the losing side will have to admit defeat in the Times newspaper.

Things look up when a new client, Mr. Saunders, hires Lockwood & Co. to be present at the excavation of Edmund Bickerstaff, a Victorian doctor who reportedly tried to communicate with the dead. Saunders needs the coffin sealed with silver to prevent any supernatural trouble. All goes well-until George's curiosity attracts a horrible phantom.

Back home at Portland Row, Lockwood accuses George of making too many careless mistakes. Lucy is distracted by urgent whispers coming from the skull in the ghost jar. Then the team is summoned to DEPRAC headquarters. Kipps is there too, much to Lockwood's annoyance. Bickerstaff's coffin was raided and a strange glass object buried with the corpse has vanished. Inspector Barnes believes the relic to be highly dangerous, and he wants it found.

Judgment Based On Books The Whispering Skull (Lockwood & Co. #2)

Well, Lockwood said, if you judge success by the number of enemies you make, that was a highly successful evening.Did I ever mention that I love Lockwood & Co? Those three are so funny and amazing and it was a pleasure to be able to dive back into their world. It felt like I never left it and I had no problem to get back into the game. =)This time around they were after an object that was pilfered from a mysterious coffin and I was really curious how this story would unfold. I love haunted

So this sequel finds Lockwood and Co. on the hunt for an artifact known as the bone mirror (which has powers that are speculated upon, but never fully explained):They are guided by a glowing green head in a jar:Along the way, they find themselves in a restricted library:And then sword-fighting ensues because they carry rapiers around everywhere for some reason:Then there's a final showdown with a shadowy figure:I have to say the storytelling seemed quite scalloped to me, in that there are many

Last year, The Screaming Staircase was one of my most anticipated - with a certain amount of anxiety - books of the year. I didn't actually expect to love Lockwood & Co. as much as I'd loved Stroud's Bartimaeus series, but I hoped to love the book anyway.And I did like it. I did. I just never really connected with it. Wanting to love it, so badly, probably didn't help - my expectations were so high that the book, which was, actually, really pretty good, ended up a little bit disappointing.

Same as the first book.Full of detailed explanations and a whispering skull added to their team.The author has well balanced the curiosity and as well as the humor.

4 starsReview to comeStill great but I didn't love it as much as the first.This one had a big of a drag in the middle.But still an awesome series for all ages!!

4.5 starsThis was just wonderful. The action, the romance, the suspense. Agghhh I can't get enough of it! Lockwood, Lucy, and George have become my newest book BFFs. AND THAT ENDING.So I can't really review this without spoiling the first book, so if you haven't read the first book stop reading this review and go read the book!!Lucy's Talent becomes more and more intriguing....and in this one, we find out that the ghost in the jar is actually a Type 3 and our girl Lucy can communicate with him.
