Sell me on them. I haven't heard of them.

I've heard of and seen hem. Are they really that good? My favorite series is the Pendragon series.

Ok. There is 12 books in the series. Everyone says they look stupid. But after everyone reads them they like 'em.


The 1st Book: Cirque Du Freak A Living Nightmare was one of the best books I've ever read. It was about a boy named Darren Shan who snuck out one night to watch a Freak Show. He went in the middle of the night with a friend and saw some very gruesome stuff. Later, he stole one of the freaks' poisonous but controllable spider and the freak commanded it to bite Darren's best friend. His friend went to the hospital and was dying, so the guy made a deal and admitted he was a vampire. The deal was that the vampire would heal Darren's best friend and Darren would have to become his assistant. Darren agreed and faked his own death to his parents and snuck out at night to become the circus's newest member. The book was great and I enjoyed it so much.

Actually sounds pretty cool. I will have to pick them up after I finish His Dark Materials.

Thats another great series!!

yes i like the his dark materials trillogy too.

has anyone read the keepers and seekers series by colin foreman, if not i suggest them.

I just finished the series but didnt like the ending. Darren Shan also has another series called The Demonata. Its pretty good and im waiting on teh 7th book comint out in october

Never even heard of it. Maybe because I live in Canada.

Yea, I didnt like the ending either. Im goin to read Darren Shans other series Demonta this year. Is it better then Cirque Du Freak?

Its a freakin sweet series, ive read all of them. in the 7ish book a guy looses half of his face because he got shot in the head with a rifle.and in the second one a the wolf man i think hes called bites of a guys hands so he gates these hooks later.
