Book Recommended by Olivia J.
Peachtree Corners Library Branch
Plot: Darren Shan (A half vampire) and Mr. Creepsley (his vampire mentor) are going on a dangerous and deadly trek into the vampire world. Darren is about to meet the most powerful and elite group of vampires known to their race, THE VAMPIRE PRINCES who live up on Vampire mountain! There, they will decide Darren and Mr. Creepsley's fate for breaking one of their sacred rules. As the story goes on Darren finds out some things about vampires he's never known before but will have to learn to become a true vampire.
What was this book really about? What were the themes? This book is defiantly a heroism story. It’s all about the main character overcoming hard situations and saving the day.
What was my fave part? My favorite part was the end. It was surprising and left just enough out of the story for suspense.
Was it a good book? It was okay. At times it was overly cheesy and not descriptive enough. It reminded me of a child's picture book a few times and was sometimes very predictable. For the most part it was a solid story.
Was it easy to read? Yes very. The difficultly level was about a three. Even younger children should have no problem reading it. The book goes over what has happened in the story several times.
What age group would enjoy this? Anywhere from 10-16 maybe higher.
Who would like this book? Both boys and girls who enjoy or are just exploring the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Good for people looking for an easy read.
Are there any similar books I can read? Anything in the Cirque Du freak series would be good to start with. If you’re looking for another fantasy adventure series, the Deltora Quest is a personal favorite of mine.
