The king of kids' horror, Darren Shan, is back ensuring that his readers all have nightmares before Christmas -- and that's how they like it. After the spine-tingling terrors of "Lord Loss", "The Demonata" series continues with "Demon Thief", in which Kernel Fleck must enter the demon universe to search for his stolen brother. "Lord Loss", the first of "The Demonata" series, has sold almost 30,000 hardback copies since publication in June this year.[N.B. actually, the last time I had an update - November 2005 - it had sold in excess of 62,000 copies!!!
