Praise for Lord Loss
“The master of children’s horror at his blood-curdling best.” Publishing News
Praise for The Saga of Darren Shan
Lord of the Shadows
'Stephen King for kids … Darren Shan has brought his own brand of vampire mythology into the heads and hearts of thousands of children with his vivid and compelling series The Saga of Darren Shan, about one boy's journey from ordinary lad to vampire prince. Once they're hooked, kids tend to rip into the flesh of these books, quickly draining them of their life blood. The covers, with images of ghouls, creeping hands and dripping fangs are terrifying alone. ' Metro Life, Evening Standard
Cirque Du Freak
“…fast-paced and compelling book which leaves the reader hungry for more.”
JK Rowling
"I read Cirque Du Freak last week. I loved it. I love the way you manage to juggle the funny with the unpleasant, the affection with the hurt. It's
great story-telling."
Roddy Doyle
The Vampire’s Assistant

Product Description
Take a step into the unknown in a spine tingling story for World Book Day from the internationally bestselling Darren Shan.
“The boys and girls in the graveyard were shouting, but Koyasan no longer heard them. The world had become a wide, grey void. She could hear deep rasping sounds, the breath of creatures which had been human once but weren't any more…”
Koyasan is too scared to cross the bridge and play in the graveyard like the other children. But when her sister's soul is stolen, she must find the courage to enter a realm of evil, shape-shifting spirits.
And the spirits are waiting…

As a teacher, I read this book to my class following World Book Day 2006. I was worried the subject matter might be a bit scary for the age group (9-10 year olds) but it proved to be their favourite book I've read them all year. They were completely riveted and were sorry when the book was finished. I enjoyed it too. Could be used as a stimulus for writing too.

Would you believe it but I actually got this book as a freebie in a Harry Potter give away. I had never until then heard of Darren Shan, but I will definitely be looking out for him in the future. Although most definitely designed for children, it is spooky and atmospheric and at 26 years of age I thoroughly enjoyed it as a free light read. Would definitely recommend it as a family book for all to enjoy.

Koyasan- Darren Shan
This is not a bad book. Ok, so the ending is kind of a weak happy kiddy ending (please note Mr. Shan, I love the other books) but it is interesting. Read more
