Do you ever hear noises when you lay quietly in your bed at night, and when you ask your parents what it was they say it's the house settling. Well, if you're a true believer you'll know it's the series of Cirque Du Freak coming to life.
These books are about a young boy named Darren who makes a mistake that doesn't get him grounded, but dead. Well, undead technically. He was bitten by a vampire and is cursed to wonder the night, while being a vampire assistant. He is a half vampire himself and must follow the lead of his master, Mr. Crepsley, as they feed on the blood of our family and friends. They must worry of the sun and their evil vampeneze cousins who broke away from them hundreds of years ago. Darren and Mr.Crepsley will clash with vicious werewolves, travel through dim murky sewers, and climb treacherous mountains, which are infested with abnormal beings. Friendship, grief, and anguish are all heaved into these books. However, in the end only Darren will be able to decide his fate, human, or vampire. These books are recommended to all the children of the night, and it is guaranteed that Darren Shawn will have you on the edge of your coffin and wearing a scarf by the end of this bloodthirsty series. So readers beware, because you're in for a scare.

This series is one of the strangest I've ever read. Though I absolutely love it. There are only two words to describe the Darren Shan books: weird and funny. The mainline is a boy turning into a vampire and meeting all kinds of creatures. Sounds childish? Kinda. It's not difficult to read, and there's no deeper meaning, but Oh Dear God, you can't help but read ALL books. Marvelous.

یادم نیس اواخرِ دبستان بود یا اوایلِ راهنمایی که با یه حرص احمقانه دنبالِ یه سری کتاب فانتزی تومایه های سری هری پاتر بودم.این کتابا اون موقع رسید دستم.فضای داستان برای بچه ای که من بودم خیلی تاریک بود.خون و خونریزی و عواملِ ترشح کننده ی آدرنالین به وفور توش پیدا میشد.عواملی که الان ممکنه ابلهانه به نظر برسه ولی اون موقع کارشو خوب انجام میداد.خلاصه کنم،من حدود سه چار سال با دارن شان و آقای کرپسلی و کوهستان اشباح و بازی های مرگ و اینا زندگی کردم.این کتابا هم از دلچسب ترین تجربه های دورانِ کودکیم بود ولی خب دِ چایلد ایز گرون دِ سانگ ایز اوور بنابراین کنترل میکنم خودمو و سه تا ستاره بیشتر نمیدم بهش.
