Product description

A normal boy called Darren Shan goes to the circus one day: the Cirque Du Freak. It’s a bizarre freak show of arcane performers such as Hans Hands, Gertha Teeth, the Wolf Man and Rhamus Twobellies. But in the midst of the ghoulish excitement, true terror raises its head. The vampire Mr Crepsley is not faking it... Now in a shiveringly tense manga edition illustrated by Japanese artist Takahiro Arai, the chilling, thrilling vampire story that started it all. Come to Cirque du Freak with Darren Shan – and get ready to die of excitement!

    I really like anime books and loved the vampires in this one. I also enjoyed the story. Some books get really confusing because they jump around this one doesn’t and is really well written.

    The characters all had good personalities none of them were boring or weird. (well maybe a bit weird but whatever!)
