El circo de los extranos / Cirque Du Freak: El Circo De Los Extranos & El Aprendiz De Vampiro & Tuneles De Sangre / Cirque Du Freak & the Vampire's Assistant & Tunnels of Blood (Spanish Edition) ( )

The first three novels of the Darren Shan Saga. Interesting, different from many other vampire series I've read. Unlike other vampire/supernatural series this one is obviously geared towards boys.

The three stories are interesting, although the somewhat open endings and lack of explanation in the next novel is a bit annoying.

I found the style of storytelling annoying, although it does get better after the first novel. It makes the main character, Darren Shan, appear egoistical and self-centered. Although this is probably deliberate it is irritating. ( )

Darren Shan books 01-03: 3 stars overall. ( )

I was hooked into this book, I read it in class, at lunch any chance I got. It is one of a saga of 12 books, set around the live of Darren Shan. He becomes a vampire and meets a group circus people 'circa de freak' who befriend him. This book is 3 episodes rolled into one.
It is a good story, it has adventure, supernatural, friendships, romance, and problems to solve.
I would recommend this book to people who enjoy reading, it is along book as it is 3 stories in one. It is available in the Parnell Intermediate reading area of our school library. By Lewis Huysman, ( )
