[Maddie]

So yeah, just finished off #6. Won't be reading #7 for a while, as I've got 2 longer books to listen to.

No problem :D and Yeah its a nice job honestly. even when its busy I still get time to listen to books if I want. And during my breaks i can look at the animals

Ive been busy so im finally updating my thoughts from Hunters of the Night

Ch 8(view spoiler)[ well now that darren has said Harkat was a vampire prince before Mr Tiny remade him I guess it has to be true! But what prince?? (hide spoiler)]

ch 14 (view spoiler)[ Evanna is cool as hell. especially with all the lore. but I want everyone to survive the vampanese lord!! (hide spoiler)]

Finished (view spoiler)[ loving all the fight scenes. and what a smart way for the lord to hide in plain sight! Im so ready for the next book (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Is that #7? I'm not too sure when I'll get around to that one, as I'm currently listening to One Dark Throne, and next up is another 2 longer ones.

[Maddie]

How're you going with this one?

[Maddie]

Chapter 9 (view spoiler)[Oh wow that's a lot of into Mr Tiny gave them! And the power he has, with the whole cracks in the ceiling! How does he get his powers?

And the vampets sound terrifying. Wonder what's gonna happen with that.

And what a shocker that Darren and Mr Crepsley were chosen XD Wonder who the third one is?? (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Finished.
Evana (view spoiler)[Such a weird lady! It'd be so cool to have powers like that though. (hide spoiler)]

Vancha (view spoiler)[He's also rather interesting. Quite aggressive, never leaves anything unsaid. (hide spoiler)]

The run-in (view spoiler)[with the vampaneze was their first chance to kill the Lord! 3 to go. It was such a simple task! All coz Vancha didn't want to kill his brother. I mean, it makes sense, but how were they supposed to know? Imagine if Evana wasn't there, they'd never have known... (hide spoiler)]

Review: This one felt super short! Nothing really happened! At least we did learn about (view spoiler)[how Mr Crepsley got his scar. Interesting. (hide spoiler)] And we went back to (view spoiler)[the Cirque to see Evra again! And he's got kids now. So strange, especially the name of his son, Shankus. I definitely wouldn't name my kid that XD (hide spoiler)]
Who knows when I'll get to the next one, but I will see where they go next.

[Stormy]

[Maddie]

Yeah I'll read the rest of the series.

[Stormy]

Book 7 (view spoiler)[I like how this book started six years on from where the last book ended I thought this was a lovely change of pace (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 7 (view spoiler)[I love this bit from chapter 5 That's funny. You were singing about how much you … loved it earlier. 'Ale, ale, I drink like a whale, I am the … Prince, the Prince of ale (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 7 : (view spoiler)[Darren, along with Crepsley and Harkat are sent off on a special mission to hunt the Vampaneze when on their mission they bump into another vampire Prince (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 7 (view spoiler)[ I love in this book how we get to see the characters from the other book and see how the girl not like snake boy is now got is own family he's got a wife and three kids and just to see how the circus is still going I just love this aspect of the book and as always people and always what do you think they are (hide spoiler)]

I'm going to read the eighth book probably starting it tonight and will see where we go from there but I am definitely completing the series with you

[Maddie]

Okay cool thanks :D

[Stormy]

In conclusion I really did enjoy books 7

[Maddie]

I didn't really XD

[Stormy]

Book 8 (view spoiler)[ i think it funny that there trying to get darren in school lol (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 8 (view spoiler)[ I find it funny how Darren has now needed to start school again and I can't believe one of his teachers is his ex-girlfriend (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 8 (view spoiler)[ I truly feel sorry for Darren he still has feelings for this girl and he can't understand why he can't have her but to him it doesn't feel that long since he saw her and they were together is he going to tell her that he's a vampire (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 8 (view spoiler)[ I knew Steve was going to come back one of these days his best friend from childhood (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 8 (view spoiler)[I know Mr Crepsley needed to go back to support And to pay his respects to the vampire who died I don't think he should off left Darren to defend for his self (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Just finished this book and I actually really enjoyed it it reminds me of lot of the books in the beginning

[Stormy]

Hi Madison I've gone onto Book 9 but I'm still would like to discuss book 8 with you when you finish it if that's ok with you

[Stormy]

Book 9 (view spoiler)[ I'm so happy they escape there enemies (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 9 (view spoiler)[ I think it's funny that vampaneze can't kill them because of what Mr tiny told them if they killed them the vampires win (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 9 (view spoiler)[ I can't believe Darren and the gang are in jail apart from the other prince who got away without them because Mr Crepsley hurt his self and it was all the vampaneze fault including Steve they're the ones who decided to trap them this way to get them out of the way (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 9 (view spoiler)[ also I can't believe the vampaneze set Darren up to go back to school I hate Steve always have since the first book and I feel sorry for Darren because of his girlfriend and the vampaneze have got her now (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 9 (view spoiler)[ I was so worried about Mr Crepsley being in that cell and just hoping it didn't have a window he's one of my favourite characters (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Sorry Madison if I'm reading them too quick but I just can't wait to finish this series as I've been reading it since 2012 lol
Book 10 (view spoiler)[ I feel so sorry for Darren Mr Krabs he was like his father and he feels like a member of his family has died for nothing (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 10 (view spoiler)[ I just knew Steve was the one they needed to kill something was just telling me that it was him I was wondering in but 9 why they were not wanting him to die so much (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 10 (view spoiler)[ I respect Darren's decision to go back to the Cirque du Freak because that is his home (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 10(view spoiler)[ I knew that wasn't right we were going to see a Debbie and the officer I think that idea is a good idea but I don't know if the vampires are going to go for it I can't believe Darren is going with them and leaving the little person to deal with his stuff on his own (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 10 (view spoiler)[ I'm so happy Darren decided to go with his friend the little person I think that was the right decision for him because the little person has done so much for him and it's like his best friend (hide spoiler)]

[Stormy]

Book 10 (view spoiler)[ I can't believe they have to kill a black panther to find out more of the Secret of the little person (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

No worries go for it XD As I said, I have no idea when I'll read the next one.
