Author Biography: Darren Shan

"I was born in London in 1972 and moved to Ireland when I was 6 years old, where I've lived ever since. I always wanted to be a writer - I've loved telling stories since I was a child. I started out writing books for adults, and managed to get a couple published. One day, on a whim, I decided to try a book for children. The result was Cirque Du Freak. Much to my surprise, it took off, and I became a de facto children's author! Since then I've used my ill-gotten gains to buy lots of comic-strip art and travel the world. When I'm not working or traveling, I like watching movies.

Book Synopsis

Beranabus and Dervish are gone. Bec has formed an unholy alliance with Lord Loss. Kernel is blind, held on Earth against his will. Grubbs is mad with grief and spinning out of control.

The demons are crossing.

The Disciples are falling.

The Shadow is waiting.

Welcome to the end.

The tenth and final novel in the chilling Demonata series by Darren Shan, author of the New York Times bestselling Cirque Du Freak series, will bring everything to a terrifying, cataclysmic conclusion.

Children's Literature

This tenth and final book in The Demonata series is one of the grimmest, most hopeless-feeling YA books I have read in a long time. However, that is not to say that I did not enjoy reading the conclusion of Grubb's Grady's battle. When the story opens, Grubbs is in the depths of despair. He is losing his fight with Lord Loss and the demons, and they have found their way into the world. With the majority of his family dead, Grubbs is forced to decide how much he is willing to sacrifice for a chance to win the fight. The decisions that Grubbs faces and the choices he makes are sometimes shocking, and they are at odds with his role as the "protagonist" in the series, but that is part of what makes this YA novel stand out. It is realistic to the point of horrific, yet it manages to stay engaging and entertaining all the way through. Reviewer: Jennifer Waldrop
