Publisher Description

Life gets dangerous when a kid discovers a vampire at an illegal circus in this fast-paced and creepy-crawly tale from bestselling author and master of horror, Darren Shan.

When Darren and his friends secretly score tickets to the terrifying Cirque Du Freak, they don’t expect the show to be as petrifying as the flier promised. If anything, it’s worse. A wonderfully eccentric cast of characters frightens the audience, but things get more insidious after the show when Darren oversees a confrontation that reveals one of the performers, Mr. Crepsley, is a real-life vampire.

Instead of staying far away from the horrifying truths he’s unearthed, as if by destiny, Darren is pulled to Mr. Crepsley. What follows is a spine-chilling descent into the dark and bloody world of vampires—but these monsters aren’t like anything you’ve seen before.

Get pulled into the nightmare in this first book of the fantastically bizarre and bestselling series Ciruqe Du Freak. NOT for the faint of heart.

Best series ever!

I hated reading when I was younger, but after reading this series, I LOVE reading books all the time! I recommend for any age!

Great!

The movie was boring, but the book is so great! Some parts of the series were horribly depressing, but the end always left me hungry for more.

Shnipey ,

Simply incredible

Best book saga ever!!!!!! You must read this heart stoping saga. It will have you biting your nails saying no no it can't be,jumping up and down saying yes yes!!!! And possibly crying. So many twists and turns ups and down you will never get bored. Trust me you won't be able to put these books down. Wonderful ending in Sons of Destiny that will make you cry(but in a good way) you have to read them all. I would recommend them to everyone.
