Review: Loved it - I've always enjoyed reading this series. It's such a good series and a good take on vampires and definitely different from how some may see vampires, which I definitely don't mind
Review: Love these!!! - Read the series completely in Middle School and decided to read again, and I'll probably read multiple times more. Definitely recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fun re-read!
*by D***N on August 1, 2020*

I’m glad I assigned this for myself to read again. I remember the series getting better as it progressed. This was just an introductory story to get the reader acclimated to the world of the fictional Darren Shan and the vampire Larten Crepsley (a great character for vampire fans). Slightly darker read than Goosebumps (it contains themes of death after all) but definitely still a great recommendation for an upper middlegrade reader (and big kids like me).
