Lord of the Shadows

Purchased thinking id receive the book bindings with purchasing “like new” or “very good”, ordered set of 12, thinking now i may of made a big mistake.

I read this book in one day! I couldn't put it down! I can hardly wait for the final book to come out! If you like Darren Shan, this is a MUST READ book! - Justin Ross, age 10

This was an excellent book! One of the best so far. It was definitely exciting, and suspenseful, though I think Shan might have fallen down a bit on his plot. Basically he goes back to his home town, meets back up with Vancha, Debbie, and Alice, and Steve, and discovers his sister, and the true demon within himself as he makes his transformation from half-mortal to full-vampire, and as he begins to fulfill prophecies set down by Mr.s Tiny and Tall, and Evanna. This was kind of a short read, but was a genuinely good book, and I'd recommend it to anyone who has read all the others (this would be a really disappointing read if you read the series out of order, so I would definitely not recommend that). In the second to last, a lot of loose ends are brought closer together, but not quite tied, that leaves readers dying for the next. All I can say is "Good job, Darren!"

This book was absolutely amazing. Darren Shan's writing has always captivated me. This was such a good book. It leaves you thinking at the end of every chapter! I couldn't put it down and when I did within five minutes I would be reading it again. If you loved the first ten you will absolutley LOVE this one! I can't wait for the eleventh one to come out!

The other rewiew took the words right out of my mouth. This book is amazing. In my opinion its the best so far. I got the book today and finished it a few hours later and immediatly knew I have to write a review about it. In book 11 of the Cirque Du Freak series (or the saga of Darren Shan) time has passed since Harkat and Darrens journey in book 10. Now working at the cirque where does the luck of the vampires lead him? Back to his home town! Darren is faced with difficult decicions, familiar friends, horrible truths, death and shocking events that will make you wish book 12 was already out! I highly recommend this book. If you like Darren Shans writing I also recommend The Demonata.

This book is amazing, I have spent today reading it and it is mind blowing. Continued after book 10, Darren is at the cirque helping out the staff and doing varoius jobs. It has been two years since he learned who Harkat truly was. Then Mr.Tall told him of where they are going. It was Darrens old neighborhood! Read it yourself to find out the rest and like me you will be shocked to see many familiar faces and plenty of shocking events to keep you hooked on reading it. I got one more thing to say, Go Darren Shan!!
