Birth of a Killer (2010)

I wasn't a huge fan of Darren Shan's Saga of Darren Shan (hasn't got much of an ego has he?). I thought Cirque Du Freak was too short and undeveloped and trying too hard. But then i read the first book in the Demonata series, Lord Loss and gained a new opinion of Shan. Lord Loss was packed full o...

Zom-B. Darren Shan (2012)

This book was a very enjoyable book to read. Although, only half the book depicts the terror of a horrifying zombie invasion, the other half of the book allows you to peer into B's life and realize the struggle she is going through. I liked the complicated relationship between B and her dad, and ...

Brothers to the Death (2012)

This review is for all four books. Ok, so having read the twelve books on the Saga of Darren Shan, and having thoroughly enjoyed them, it was time to see where it all began for Darren's would be master and mentor, Larten Crepsley. On the whole I found all four books enjoyable, but the third insta...

Palace of the Damned (2011)

The book called Palace of the Damned by Darren Shan was great. This setting was a mystical place filled with vampires and vampeneze. The main character faced it around a person named Larten Creepsley trying to take control of his own life after he doesn't want to be his masters servant anymore.In...

A holtak vonulása (2010)

I'm not at all into anything gangster or Mafia, so I wasn't sure how I was going to enjoy this. It starts off as any other gangster novel - young upstart catches the eye of a kingpin, and is given a position in his organisation. But that's where the similarity ends. This is no ordinary city an...

Hell's Heroes (2009)

Are you kiddin ´me. I´m not really sure if i should laugh or cry but the ending was hilarious. If you read the cirque du freak series you know what i´m talking about. I was so confused because the last book was so strange and disturbing i kinda felt like this after i had finished the cdf series.....

Ocean of Blood (2011)

Larten and Wester have always interested me. They are vampires yet they act, and surround themselves with humans. They even act so human they sometimes don't even realize that they are vampires. Evidence of this is when Larten is telling a story of when he accidentally woke up a person while feed...

Cirque Du Freak, Volume 1 (2009)

Finished the text book last night, and our lovely librarian had the Manga version as well. So that was today's task. Manga is an interesting medium, because you have to read right to left, and that means you start from the 'end' of the book and read 'backwards' to the 'front'. It's a tricky thing...

Darren Shan: Friikkisirkus, 01 (2014)

I was pleasantly surprised with this series. At first glance I was a bit iffy, but I was quickly sucked into the story. Despite the fact that it's aimed at younger readers, I found it engaging and intriguing. The whole series was well worth reading. The characters were well constructed and the va...

Book

Oceán krve (2013)

Another enjoyable, readable book from Darren Shan. I struggled a little with this one as it didn't seem as structured as other novels of Shan's, I think Larten wandering around aimlessly didn't help this so sometimes I got the impression this was a filler book where not a lot happened. I thought ...

Book

Zee van bloed (2011)

I think that this book was a surprising book. It was an irony to me that Larten wanted to learn and follow Seba, his master and follow the ways of the vampire's life, joining the Cirque Du Freak and also meeting new friends. However, that was in the first book. In this second book, I was looking ...

Zom-B, Book 6 (2014)

I just want to take a moment and thank Darren Shan for the amazing stories he creates. Not only with the Zom-B series, but anything in general. After finishing this instalment I realised how bloody much I love anything he creates. Plus, after I've caught up, well, finished the ones I have of the ...

Zom-B Mission (2014)

This was a great book in a great series, but it was not my favorite. The writing was very straight to the point, which is a good thing. I like the author’s style of writing. I don’t want to give anything away, but the series is going even farther into themes of racism, as revealed at the end of t...

Zom-B Family (2014)

This book is a great edition to the Zom-B series. The book continues the pace of the previous books without missing a beat. If you haven't read the series, you should seriously consider to do so. This book shows the resilience of mankind (and the undead) to hold on to humanity against all odds. Z...

Hunters of the Dusk (2005)

While death is certain,we do not know who it will claim...I'm back on the reading wagon! I hadn't realised just how long I'd gone without picking up a book, and it's shameful. Hunters of the Dusk makes that feeling worse by being so darn good. I love the kind of mini-trilogies the series contains...

The Vampire's Assistant (2002)

I didn't know what to read next, even though Blood Song was already on my currently reading list, so I decided to rearrange a part of my bookshelf. I noticed book 3 lying around with a couple of other random books. I then had a slight feeling of wanting to continue on with the series. I heard not...

Lord Loss (2006)

I'm all for reading about DEATH MATCH CHESS, but even that cannot save this book for me. It seems poised to snag whatever parts of the YA demographic that have not been sucked into the Twilight vortex. ("Not interested in reading an epic romance about a sparkly vampire? Try this book about demons...

Vampire Blood Trilogy (2015)

I watched the movie The Vampire’s Assistant years ago. And honestly, I can’t remember much from it besides the bare bones. However I remember finding the idea interesting and when I found the bind-up of the first three books of the series at Boekenfestijn, I instantly grabbed it. The overall idea...

Demon Apocalypse (2008)

Like the lame How does Cheez-It do it commercial, I’m wondering How does Darren do it—except for the fact that lame and Darren Shan should never be strung together in a sentence. Yes, he’s that good a storyteller. He’s the kind of author that can re-use ideas but turn them into something more ori...

ZOM-B 11

I lurch up them, growing in strength all the time. I’m still in bad shape, and I sting and ache all over, but coming off the back of my recent lows, I feel like I’ve been given bionic implants.     I make it to the roof and pause to assess my options. I can hear the Angels out...

City of the Snakes

I defy red lights and one-way streets, take bends without braking, challenging the city to blast my wheels from under me and send me crunching to my death. The police are soon after me, sirens wailing. They set up roadblocks that I dodge automatically, brain ticking over mechanically, analyzing t...

Dark Calling (2009)

Rather than lie low afterwards or flee the city as so many others did, he decided to make paintings of the downfall of London.

“Hi. I’m Becky Smith, but everyone calls me B.” “Becky it is,” one of the boys laughs, and jogs across.
