"Cirque Du Freak" has been one of the most exciting series I've read in a long time! In book 7, six years have passed for Darren Shan as a Vampire Prince. He and his mentor, Larten Crepsley, have spent their time at Vampire Mountain dealing with the threat of the upcoming war with the vampaneze. As Darren sets out on a quest to find and destroy the Vampeneze Lord with Larten, another Vampire Prince, and Harkat the Little Person, they discover from the sorceress Lady Evanna that they will only have four chances. If they fail each time, only one of them will live to witness the downfall of the Vampire clan. An intriguing, exciting and fast-paced tale you won't want to put down!
