Birth of a Killer by Darren Shan
Following the massive success of the Demonata series, Darren Shan is back where it all started – telling the life story of the vampire Larten Crepsley. Spanning centuries and continents, taking in sea voyages, murder, war and love, this is the epic, bloodsoaked tale of a vampire who started out a nobody… and ended up changing the world forever.“His writing is slick, his dialogue sharp and clever, his plotting immaculateHis books ooze with the kind of creepy, dark atmosphere and powerful characters that young teenage readers lap up. Shan is honing his craft with every book, and I look forward to the next gore-fest with relish.”
Irish Independent
“Forget Stephen King, this author's the master of scaring children.”
The Big Issue in Scotland
“A tantalising start to the series and a must-read for Darren Shan fans.”
