Skulduggery Pleasant: Bedlam - Speculation Topic

[Chuck Norris]

Hey guys,

If you haven't heard already, the name of the 12th book has been announced to be Bedlam. What are you thoughts and ideas on what this book will be about given the name?

Sooo... forums are dead?

Not dead enough to double post.......

Honestly I havent been following the series.

Hey guys, so the tittle of the new SP book is out now, it's called Bedlam and is supposed to be out May 30th.
Meanwhile while we wait I would like to see some theories about what's about to happen in the book? 

I'm specially curious about how Caisson will react when he meets Skulduggery again, and the reaction of Skulduggery himself.

this is a topic! i think some people have already posted some speculations -- though to be truthful, i'm pretty sure a lot of us aren't really following landy anymore.

I've merged the topics for you.

I still follow Landy. purely because his writing is improving and I want to see his series to the bitter end. I hope everything gets wrapped up in a nice bow at the end. Definitely think they're teasing the return of Darquesse and I definitely think Val has gained the power of the ancients and she is essentially an ancient now. Omen I feel will eventually die or he'll become irrelevant. This new series will end up following the same structure Derek usually follows, and has.

Tease final threat
Introduce final threat as an actual threat
deal with final threat

Oooops, I didn't know this was a post already, sorry guys!

Anyway I think people will finally find out the truth about Vile? Thoughts?

[Astaphaios]

what truth about vile? vile has pretty much been explained away.

Yes but only Valkyrie and Abyssinia know the secret, China suspects only, I mean I would like to see a shock scene where the truth eventually turns public, with Saracen and Dexter present idk.

If Landy hurts Omen I'll cry my bloody eyes out. What a pure character that none of us deserved.

Also hope Val won't become OP as hell or become an Ancient. Just my personal hope! The lightening powers/aura reading powers bother me to begin with, I think her character will be totally lost if he gives her anymore power.

ah. highly doubtful. there's little reason to rinse vile any longer, given he's more or less history now.

Vile has been appearing in most books, and I think he will appear again to fight Abyssinia and her gang.
