Hunters of the Dusk by Darren Shan
After being blown away by The Vampire Prince, I expected the action to escalate in Hunters of the Dusk, and I must admit to a certain amount of disappointment… I don’t think that Hunters of the Dusk was the strongest book in this series. For me, it lagged considerably, especially as I had to travel 25 miles to get the book… There were still some good shocks and surprises, but it seemed to me that the author was starting to reach for his twists, which came so naturally before. By the way, I have no idea why this is claimed to be marketed for ages 9-12. This is clearly a teen series. Darren Shan is Bram Stoker for teens who like vampires… Read the rest.
