Natalie: There are two settings in Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy. One of these is the non-magical world and the other is the magical world. Stephanie meets Skulduggery, a living skeleton, at her uncle's funeral. In the non-magic world, he has to hide his face so no one knows he's a skeleton. In the magical world, Stephanie has to learn magic to survive. The magical world made a difference in the characters and their actions because there were problems happening in the magical world that the characters have to fight for and make sacrifices for. The setting of the non-magical world made a difference in the characters' actions because the characters have to change some of their plans because most of the non-magical world doesn't know about the magical world. |
