Darren Shan's Mysical Adventure

Cirque Du Freak's The Lake of Souls, is about a half vampire boy named Darren Shan. This is he 10th book in the series by the wonderful author Darren Shan who uses the best details possible. In the book, Darren must go into a time portal to help his good friend Harkat discover who he was before he died and got his new body created by the king of the Little People, Mr.Tiny. While he's there, a war is going on in his own time with the Vampanese -an evil race of the vampire- and the legendary vampires. This amazing adventure goes from giant toads, dragons, four eyed rats, spiders, pirates, and mysterious people known as Kulashkas, who serve the sacred monster called the Grotesque.

The Lake of Souls is a wondrous 265 paged book filled with action, disgusting monsters, quick getaways, jungles, swamps, and more. This book ought to get your heart pounding and hypnotize you until the very end. Darren Shan's first person point of view gives you a better idea of what's happening too.

Darren is a brave whole-hearted boy who would do anything to help his friends in their time of need. I strongly recommend this book to you so you can enjoy a wonderful story too. So why not go out and pick up the first book of the series?

A Vampire Master!

Cirque Du Freak: the Lake of Souls was a great book that I read all the way through without putting it down. Darren Shan writes an extremely imaginative plot line that kept me guessing what was going to happen next, without ever truly knowing if it would happen or not. This book follows our friends Darren and Harket into a new world of danger and magic, mistical creatures and a crazy old man on a path to find who Harket was in his past life. I thought this book was one of the best of the Cirque Du Freak series and can't wait for the next one to come out. I would recomend this book to all people ages eight to one hundred and twenty seven. Darren Shan keeps his readers on the edge of their seats once again in the thrilling Cirque Du Freak: the Lake of Souls!
