 Sorry for only rating 3 stars, Mr Shan! January 11, 2008
I feel bad only giving this book 3 out of 5 stars because I am a big Darren Shan fan, I really liked The Saga of Darren Shan and LOVED the first three books in the Demonata series, but I was a bit dissapointed with this book.Dont get me wrong, it's not a bad book, just a bit week. It was much slower-paced than the others and I didn't like the character of Bec as much as I did Grubbs and Kernel.
However, it explained some things from the past involving Grubbs' family and the Demonata and it was quite suspencefull and had a surpise ending so had its good points, too.
Still quite a good read which I would recomend becuase it is of the Demonata series, which is brilliant.
 Awesome January 6, 2008
I absolutely love everything Darren Shan writes.
This book isn't the best of the Demonata series, [NOT that it isn't good], but it explains a hell of a lot for the next few books.
My favourite character in this book has GOT to be Bran. He's so sweet, and by the end of it, you seem to be able to understand what all his nonsensical gabbling means. If you have the book, look at the bottom of page 38:
'pigs trotters' he said thoughtfully
Love it!
Back in time October 15, 2007
This book was a little different to the previous 3 Demonata books in that it was set in a different time but still, it kept very strong links to the series and explained a some of the mysteries from the previous books.
It's great to have a girl as the main character for a change as most fantasy/horror books seem to centre around boys but at the same time the girl lead didn't put my son off, maybe because she's such a strong character.
Another fantastic book from Darren Shan, can't wait for the next book.
 Very good but worst in the series October 9, 2007

This book is amazing like all the other books in the domanata series but i have to say it is the worst. It lacks in the commical side that the other books have. The story is very clevely done and this book links strongley to book 5 and 6 even though it is set in a different place and time.
simply amazing September 19, 2007

The best book un the world, and easly disturbing, Orna Zombie scene is more disturbing than anybody could ever picture (save Darren Shan himself).
And it made me cry (yes sounds sad but true), powerfull, gripping, violent, nasty...only read if you truly have guts.
