by Darren Shan

Darren Shan, the vampire's assistant, must clear his name and avenge the death of Gavner Purl. Can a half-vampire outwit a Vampire Prince?

Betrayed by Kurda and reeling from the brutal slaying of Gavner, the vampire's assistant, Darren Shan, finds himself branded a traitor and hunted by the vampire clan.

Will Darren's failure to complete the Trials mean banishment for Mr Crepsley and execution for himself? Or can Darren return to the home of the damned and exact revenge?

But Darren comes to realise that there is more than revenge at stake - the vampire clan must combat the rise of the Vampaneze Lord, or see his ascension mark the end of thousands of years of vampire rule...

Okay so...I love the series and I really like this book, but....BUT.... yeah I think it's not that good, on the one hand it's nice to see a bit in depth of the politics and you can feel the build up of the story that progresses to something big, but let's talk about Darren. Why is he such an a**hole? Like they helped him, they believed him(it's so unrealistic) and then he did nothing for his friend that has actually good points and talked logically! Like you can see that the vampires are really into their habits and sometimes it darkens their thinking but this was too much
