Metro Plenty of humour alongside the chills. Financial Times I've waited with baited breath for the second instalment of Jonathan Stroud's Lockwood & Co novels. At last, The Whispering Skull is here and it is definitely worth the wait. Scotsman Teen review Stroud delivers another riveting narrative Booklist
