This book was very mysterious in the way it was started. Ecspecially with three deaths right at the very begining. From then on I thought it got a little boring untill the end with the big battle. The ending was ok but it was a little obvious. Overall it was quite a twisted book and a good start to the Demonata series.

I thought this was much better than the first book especially since there was a lot more blood and death. It starts off very confusing because it has nothing to do with the first book (or so you think). It gradually gets more easy to understand and you realise the link between the two books. The bad thing was it was far to easy to figure out the ending, as I put all the clues together from the two books and had guessed what was going to happen by halfway through it as it’s soooooooooooo obvious. It had an alright ending but left you clueless about what was going to happen to Kernel and the third book has nothing to do with him. Overall good for blood and deaths, bad for plot.

Slawter was a much better book for action than the other two books but lacked for turning points. It starts off as the most boaring book I’ve ever read but gradually gets much better. Yet again I guessed what would happen in the town (Slawter) because it was so predictable. Overall a better book than Lord Loss and Demon Thief but hopefully Bec is better.

I have recently read the Saga of Darren Shan. It was a great seires of books, with a brilliant storyline. It starts off fairly simple but turns out to be the best seires of books I’ve ever read (except the Alex Rider Series) It was hard to believe the answer to the saga was in the title of the 12th book (Sons of Destiny) or (sons of Des-Tiny). It’s strange how all things in the book happen for a reason and there was no way for Darren to change it (or so you think). At the end you do slightly think it was all real as the author says at the very begining of the saga. Overall Rating 10/10.
