In my review of Darren Shan and the Killers of the dawn I will not contain any spoilers of the book but I may write a few hints in and I will write about the first book in the series as it is necessary for you to understand as to what is happening. For this reason I would suggest you not reading this review if you are going to read the first book and want everything which happens in Darren Shan: Cirque Du Freak to be a surprise I would recommend you not to read the rest of the review.
In the first book Darren Shan and his best friend Steve go to circus and Darren is amazed about a spider which does tricks. So later on that night he steals the spider. When showing the spider to Steve though this poisonous spider bites Steve. Steve is then taken to hospital and looks as if he is dying. Darren then makes a deal with the spider owner. Steve will get cured...if Darren becomes a vampire! Darren goes ahead with the deal and then has to fake his death as he can't continue living normal life as he has so much more strength he could kill his mother while hugging her.
In this exciting book Darren Shan and his fellow hunters have just broken out of prison and are now on the run from a huge unruly mob. Surrounded and being hunted like dogs this is a brilliant read. Will they all survive till dawn? The Author hasn't writtena better book in the series yet as the fast-paced nail biting excitement makes your heart pound. Horribly good.
All in all I would thoroughly recommend this read to all people. Thank you for reading my review. For more book reviews and games and gadget reviews please look at my profile. Below is a list of all the books in this twelve part series.
