He, and he alone will show you the meaning of jack of all trades.Īll in all, this is possibly the most maddening, frustrating, insane, amazing, outstanding, excelling books series of them all. His ability to express the feelings of the characters when in strife, when in love, when in anger and depression is unique to him, and must be appreciated from all corners of the world.
Humans are considered lesser intelligent, and were refused entry on a ark, created by the demons mortal enemies, Old Ones.ĭarren captivates you in a whirlwind of trouble, bringing fights from 1500 years ago, depicting their lives and speech outstandingly well, waging wars between worlds. There are more than one intelligent life in the universe, demons, and non demons. Darren created a world in which humans are constantly shadowed by demons, living in another realm.
This one went further than any other book, any other author, any other mind. Also the order of the books gives you some aha-moments later in the series - i strongly recommend to read them in published order. It's a pity the audiobooks are so hard to get and only cover books 1-6, they are really really good, had to buy mine second hand though, because audible, amazon and no other online store had them to purchase.īy the way, other than some I really like the order of the books, no matter how much i wanted to know how the last main character went on, the next book and character captured my interest with pages and i never looked back. Having that said there is a lot of character development going on, the characters are by no means flat and one dimensional.Īfter finishing all books, I still thought about the story and characters for some days, especially the ending. Some character development didn't happened to my full liking, but i can see how it was necessary for the story and could appreciate it. see why such behaviour might be needed for certain stories, but I absolute LOVE that Darren Shan gives the characters space to cope in these books I always have a hard time stomaching when characters in books or movies are presented with supernatural things and just accept them as normal, adapt to the new situation very quickly. Some people seem to think some passages are too slow, but i personally liked them very much, those moments make the books "believable" - natural. I really enjoyed the horror, i guess for younger folks that would be quite scary, i would have loved it as a teen too. So after reading the first pages of Lord Loss I was sure this had nothing to do with Vampires, spider loving kids etc but never the less became one of my favorite book series :D. I came to this books by mistake, i wanted to buy the Darren Shan series (Cirque du freak etc) and accidentally bought one of the Demonata books- i still haven't read the Darren Shan series yet.
