[Markus]

Chapter 10:(view spoiler)[I love how he's with the Cirque du Freak, I can't wait for him to find his new self. (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Yay I'm reading this today too :)

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 11
(view spoiler)[ I'm so glad he got to go back to the cirque de freak he was pretty lonely, his banter and playfulness makes you feel happy that he has a friend although it was quite funny the way he met him in the room with the sleep crawling snake lol imagine being in that situation yourself id be freaked out too (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 15
(view spoiler)[ well that was an introduction, Mr tiny sounds like a very scary man and I still didn't find out what the little people eat although I'm quite sure I don't want to know either, it's strange that Evra is so afraid of Mr Tiny. (hide spoiler)]

[Markus]

Chapter 13: Feeling quite meh about the whole thing, enjoyable though.(view spoiler)[I don't like Sam, even Evra is a little so-so for me as an addition to the book. (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 19
(view spoiler)[ I loved reading about the cirque in full swing all the prep and well it was great that Darren got to join in even if he did think about killing me kresley, he was furious when he found out it was a test although he freely admitted to himself that he was thinking about killing him
(hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 20
(view spoiler)[ I'm surprised that Darren has lasted so long without human blood and the scene with the bodies was quite funny but I do find Mr krepsley losing his temper quite funny (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to 27
(view spoiler)[ wow Darren seems to have found his nasty side but he's protecting the cirque so I guess he has a good reason just not sure the way he's going about it (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to 30
(view spoiler)[ wow damn RV what an idiot letting the wolf man free although I have to say I laughed at the scene where his hands got eaten because it was made more comical than gorey or scary, as if he'd just say my hand my hands! It was unbelievable (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to 31
(view spoiler)[ oh no not Sam! Not sweet well spoken Sam! And yuck the description of munching him was so well described I actually felt a little sick (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to 33
(view spoiler)[ oh no what a first drink for Darren than his best friend, the poor guy was so distraught! (hide spoiler)]

[Markus]

End:(view spoiler)[That was so weird! I did enjoy it though, it was fun, but the ending was seriously messed up! (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ the ending was totally messed up agree with you there Markus, weird and twisted but definitely at times funny (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Trials of death
Up to chapter 5
(view spoiler)[ wow what a way to begin, meeting the princes for the trial choosing made me as a reader really feel for Darren the nerves he must have felt. The training he had to endure sounded so torturous and then the trial wow, I almost didn't believe he was going to make it out (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Trials of death
Up to chapter 8
(view spoiler)[ the path of needles training was light compared to the actual trial, the writer built suspense and terror in abundance during the whole description of the trial (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Trial of death
Up to 10
(view spoiler)[ the festival was so interesting full adults throwing themselves around in excitement amusement and pure joy it was almost like they were at a carnival. Sadly Arra failed at a fight on the bars against curta and she was so embarrassed and ashamed. The trip to the spider cave was interesting and the healing power of the webs, I'm glad Darren seems to have an inkling of his former love of spiders rekindling (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Trials of death
Up to chapter 13
(view spoiler)[ wow that was an amazing description of the halls of fire I felt like I was Darren and the one facing the fear and the fire and using strategy to avoid it. But obviously I wasn't but the writer made me feel that, and then his mad ramblings after like he couldn't believe he survived (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Trials of death
Up to chapter 16
(view spoiler)[ I love the way the prince vampires wanted to help Darren but not lose face so they chose to help him by delaying the trial on technicalities. And wow the trial when it began just as action packed as the other and just as detailed and adrenaline filled I loved reading that bit (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]
