4/5 stars SUMMARY: When Darren hit the city with Mr.Crepsley and Evra, the fun quickly disperses when bodies are discovered in the city. Is Mr.Crepsley to blame? Can Evra and Darren stop these horrid things from happening or will they lose their lives saving the innocent? REVIEW: I love Darr...

Finished it in one sitting. It had a shallow plot, something obviously meant for children or teens younger than 18. I have to press the issue again regarding books that really not scary but they are considered as horror. This book didn't scare me at all, but like I said, it was meant for children- y...

First of all, I can honestly say I love the cover. It is still creepy, but not as disturbing as the other covers in this series. And just like all the other books you don't find out what the cover means until you read the story.I have to say the story was awesome. But well it is at times a bit much....

Epically bad and too cliche for words. Some redeemable value for a middle school reader but not much.

What a great ending to the first trilogy! Darker still, and moving the action out into the wider Vampire society, I can't fault it. It was nice to see Darren, Evra and Mr Crepsley away from the Cirque, and without going near any spoilers their new foe was a fabulous character to read. So much fun! ...

Even better than Cirque Du Freak. I LOVE this series. The second one in is darker and more violent than the first, but it's so intelligently and compellingly written that I'd still be absolutely chuffed to bits to find my son reading this when he's a few years older, violence and all. Darren's co...

I've been getting hooked on Darren Shan via his ZOM-B series, and have come to the Vampire novels really late in the day, but what a treat! I read Cirque du Freak in one sitting this morning and adored it. Shan does a fantastic job of keeping the narrative genuinely frightening but at the same tim...

EDIT So I just finished watching The Vampire's Assistant the film... I'm kind of disappointed. The film was completely different — the film was a mixture of both A Living Nightmare and this; the first 30 minutes of it stuck with book one. Unfortunately, it did not continue with the plot and started ...

I did not like this book. It was like this book couldn't decide if it wanted to preach about how bad racism is or if it wanted to be a standard zombie book. The gory bits were repetitive and I could care less about the characters.There seemed to be no character development for the secondary characte...
