GREAT BOOK SERIES

LOVE THIS SERIES and I would recommend these books to all SCIFI and FANTASY readers of all age!

WOW

When this series started, it was clearly identifiable as a teen series, one intended to step up younger ones reading fare and act sort of as a gateway drug, if you will, into more mature topics and themes. By the end of this book, leading into the series finale, even adults mouths will drop. I was again reminded of what a wonderful job Darren Shan did in, slowly crafting the story and building the world, and Ralph Lister has been a most excellent voice for it

Back on track

I am so satisfied that we are back on track with the storyline, compared to the last book following Harket’s path to find out who he was/is. This book is awesome and confirmed all of my theories. I was spot on with each one!

Seriously! You should listen to these books!!

If you've been on Audible for a really long time and find yourself always looking for the next best listen....like I have....you should listen to these books. Usually when I listen to books in a series, I take a break after a few titles before going back. I know they are on the shorter side but there are also 12 of them. The narrator is also very fantastic!! These books sound like they were made for him. Love him ❤

Wow

Wow! This next to the last installment in the series got dark. Really, really dark! I didn't expect the story to go in that direction but it was great! I'm almost as afraid as I am eager to listen to the final book!!! Well done, Mr. Shan! Very well done!!!

Doing the same as GoT

Spoiler alert


I do not like how the author is trying to make Darren evil. He had been a solid good guy this whole time and now he all of a sudden has an evil streak.

Amazing book but…(spoilers)

I love all the cirque do freak books and this one is no different again spoilers! The only problem I have is why even bring up that Vancha could take down RV? It makes no sense to let him go then. If they take down RV and save shancus then they still have Darius as an edge and they are fated to meet Steve no matter what so why even give that option? It’s incredibly dumb to let RV go at that point should of just said he’s too far ahead to get a good shot

Amazing series

I loved every second of this entire series. I have gone through the first 11 books in less than 2 weeks

Wow

Definitely didn’t see the ending coming I’ve listened to all the books didn’t see the ending coming up cliff hanger

Great Book Series

Great Book Series still, I just wish the main character would have been allowed to use common sense, and to stop thinking like he was a elementary school student even after roughly 20 years past from the time he became a half vampire. Still allowing him to act as if he is not a Vampire prints, or that none of the situation and scenarios and events never happened for him to constantly do stupid stuff to put himself and others into harm, basically, the character remained a selfish elementary age student mentality from book, one to boom 12, it’s disappointing.
