Cirque Du Freak Series

61

By Wendy Krick

Cirque Du Freak

Cirque Du Freak is a series of 12 books by Darren Shan. Teenage boys love this fiction vampire series. It really is a good read. Cirque Du Freak has everything that boys love like spiders and ware wolfs and of course vampires. My son has been reading these books over the last few years and of course is a huge fan.

Because of the popularity of the books, a Cirque Du Freak Movie called The Vampire's Assistant came out last year. And although, my son would tell you the Cirque Du Freak book series was much better than the movie, I still found it pretty enjoyable. The Vampires Assistant is the story about a vampire, Larten Crepsley who recruits a 14-year-old boy (Darren Shan) to be his half-vampire assistant.

If you have a teenage boy who enjoys paranormal books, then I suggest you buy Cirque Du Freak for him. These Darren Shan books make a terrific gift.

Do you think it will be as huge as Harry Potter?

  • Yes! It is going to be awesome!
  • No Way Harry Potter will always be the best.

John C. Reilly - A Vampire!?

John C. Reilly will be playing Larten Crepsley, the main vampire in the movie. I think he is perfect for the roll. Watch the trailer and see for yourself.

I like the name and the sound track seems to be very good. Even though I´m not a big fan of this kind of stories I´ll be looking forward to watch this one ;)

Great hub! I think I will watch this movie and read the stories. Vampires and other supernatural heroes seem to be the popular thing now. I even wrote a hub on the Twilight New Moon movie, which has vampires and werewolves, coming out November 19th. - Carol

CIRQUE DU FREAK!!! Finally, someone starts something about the greatest series of all time. I love it and Darren Shan. I hope they make the second movie, though the books are WAY better.

I really hope they come out with a second movie too. I enjoyed the movie, but like you said the books were better.

John C Reilly is really under rated as an actor. I loved his song solo in the musical Chicago.
