![]() This book’s plot is the most unlikely so far. In each of the CIRQUE DU FREAK books so far I’ve had trouble believing in the events at the plot’s climax and resolution. The scariness is nicely offset by some sweet moments of friendship and joy. It’s another short, fast-moving installment that’s gruesome and terrifying. Readers who enjoyed the first two CIRQUE DU FREAK books are certain to enjoy Tunnels of Blood. When they start following him on his nightly forays, they discover a new deadly evil. Crepsley and they’re eager to stop his murderous activities. Darren and Evra see a news report which says that corpses have been showing up around town - corpses with the blood totally drained out! Naturally, Darren and Evra suspect Mr. But then things start going badly, as they always do. At first the city is fun and Darren even meets a girl who becomes his first girlfriend. ![]() ![]() Darren is allowed to bring his friend Evra the snake-boy. Crepsley, Darren is told that he and his mentor will be taking a little break from the freak show and going to live in a city while Crepsley takes care of some business there. ![]() Crepsley is the only full vampire that Darren had ever met until Gavner Purl, Vampire General, shows up at the Cirque du Freak. You don’t have to read the previous books because author Darren Shan gives a short but sufficient recap, but starting at the beginning would be ideal. Warning: This is the third book in the CIRQUE DU FREAK series, so this review will contain spoilers for the previous books. ![]()
