About this listen

The nightmare continues for the new vampire's assistant in the second installment of the New York Times best-selling Saga of Darren Shan.

Darren Shan was just an ordinary schoolboy until his visit to the Cirque du Freak. Now, as he struggles with his new life as a vampire's assistant, he tries desperately to resist the one temptation that sickens him, the one thing that can keep him alive. But destiny is calling. The Wolf Man is waiting.

Great book

This is my third time reading the book and love it the way it is. Would definitely recommend if you like a mix of a story of humanity mixed with the supernatural

Young YA level or older middle grade.

Entertaining vampire book. Mild violence, no language or sexual content. Good narrator, I might listen to more.

poor quality listening

I know this is a amazing book as I read it when I was young.
I bought this for my kids to listen to in the car, but, sadly, the audio jumps every 3 seconds and we are not hearing the whole sentences. I don't know why, but it was very disappointing.
