Book Description

5 Feb 2009 The Saga of Darren Shan (Book 7)

Darren Shan, Mr Crepsley and Vancha Marsch, are the hunters of the dusk. Their quarry – the Vampaneze Lord. But friends old and new may stand in their way…

It is six years after Darren was made a Vampire Prince and following a grim prophesy made by Mr Tiny, the vampires know the ascension of the Vampaneze Lord is at hand. Mr Tiny warns the vampires that there will be only three opportunities for the Vampaneze Lord to be vanquished and only three vampires who may succeed: Vancha Marsch, Larten Crepsley… and Darren Shan.

Leaving the enclave of Vampire Mountain, Harkat, Darren and Mr Crepsley are shadowed by a creature of the night, do battle with the vampaneze, meet the mysterious Evanna and pay a visit to some old friends at the Cirque Du Freak. But no friend can prevent the bloody trail of bodies – the Vampaneze Lord may be more than a match for the hunters of the dusk.

5.0 out of 5 stars The saga of darren shan; Hunters of the dusk 24 Aug 2002
Format:Paperback
"only one of you will be alive to witness the fall of the vampire clan, the other two will be dead."

After nearly two decades of being a half vampire and only six of those being a vampire prince, Darren Shan is torn appart emotionaly by the war of the scars (the war between the vampanez and the vampires). Darren, Mr Crepsly his tutor in the vampire world, and Vancha March set out on a mission to kill the vampanez lord before he rises to power and wipes the vampires from the face of their twlight world. But all is not lost, though vicously protected, the vampanez lord will cross the path of the three vampires, only four times, and only four goes they have at killing him. They were told to follow their hearts, but in fear, a heart stands still.

This is a brilliant book, it is just oozing with emotions, figthing and death, this book, i recomend to anyone who has a taste for adventure. This was definatly the best book of the whole saga, and i am getting ready for the next action packed adventure!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic book 8 Jun 2002
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book is one of the best so far in the Darren Shan series. The suspense in this book is terrific!, and right from the first page the book grabs you and makes you want to read more. This series is to be continued in books 8 and 9 and I can't wait! The cliffhanger at the end makes this book great and well worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars 5 star 1 Jun 2010
By Rebecca
Format:Paperback
As Darren holds the spot of vampire price since he was supposed to be sentenced to hall of death for running away from his trials but was voted by the vampires to become prince wich was the only solution other than death. Comes a well expected vsit by all vampires, Desmond Tiny who is hated by the vampires made a prophecy talking about the Vampaneze Lord and a great war. The Vampaneze Lord is alive and traveling the world. Now, it's up to Darren Shan, Mr. Crepsley and a the Vampire Prince Vancha March to find the Vampaneze Lord and kill him before he brings the end to all vampires.

Mr. Tiny tells them that they have five chances to kill the Vampaneze Lord. One passed when the vampires killed one of their chances to survival Kurdha Smahlt, for being a traitor. Mr. Tiny cannot tell Darren and Mr. Crepsley what the four remaining chances are.Though he says to follow what their hearts say.Their hearts take them to the Cirque du Freak with the witch Lady Evanna, who makes a very disturbing prophecy about Darren himself!

So far the best have read on until you finish all twelve to reveal nthe truth and ending of this great soon-to-be disaster
