Book seven in the Cirque du Freak series.

Darren, now a half-vampire Prince, is on the hunt for the Lord of the Vampaneze. Darren and his companions, Mr. Crepsley, Harkat, and Vancha, must kill this half-vampaneze before he is blooded or witness the defeat of their fellow vampires in the war.

On the way, they meet a sorceress (whatever you do, DON'T call her a witch) named Evanna who tells them that they will have four encounters with their enemy--four chances to destroy him. If they f...more

this book was a very interesting one. i liked it because it gave a little insight to the world of vampires. not that it is real, the book made me think of the things that someone would do if they were. i liked it very much. i thought about reading this book because of the cover. the way they describe everything in the book with great detail is a very great way to catch the readers eye. i would deffinately read this again if i had no time.

This is probably the second Cirque Du Freak thats the most detailed so far. I love the fact that Darren Shan puts an Introduction in every book to explain the entire history of the vampire Darren Shan. I never read the first book until after i read the fifth. Many people love this book because their so detailed. My friend, Aly, told me to read other vampire books but i objected. I am glad i rejected.

Cirque Du Freak #7:Hunters Of The Dusk by Darren Shan was not as good as I had hoped. Darren Shan and Mr. Crepsley travellong distances searching for the Vampanese Lord. In my point of view, nothing happened. This is similar to book four all they did was travel. This book felt like it was written to hold books 6 and 8 together. There was no climax or main point. It was just chapter after chapter.

I keep reading them, so they must be pretty good! Darren's developed a lot as a character, but there are still plot elements that are very shallow. I am still waiting for the author to stop pretending that no one can tell he's going to make Darren's old best friend show up as the vampaneze lord . . . seems like a fat duh to me, and still no one in the book seems to realize how obvious it is. . . .

Good though I skipped over the previous two books. I prefer not to read series out of order. Each of these are stand alone, but reading ahead still provides spoilers for the books before.
