It was a shame the movies never continued because I was enchanted and adored it. I had a Harry Potter-mania type love for it. Why wouldn't I? I'm a girl obsessed with Halloween and all things spooky! As an adult, it's weird picking this book up. I can totally tell I'd be obsessed with this book series as a middle grader. It's a real shame I never grabbed it back then. It would have totally fit on my shelves next to my Goosebumps and Bunnicula! Darren Shan being the author and main protagonist is interesting. I did read this series out of order, so it was weird knowing what happens next, but it was still good! I can totally see why middle graders loved this series and I can see why it was so popular. I want to keep reading its because it's fun, mysterious and full of frights. It has a male lead, which is different from what I normally get, so it also made reading it a bit more interesting. A vampire tale told by a male becoming a vampire and not a girl chasing after them? Not my norm! Oh, and it's dark. I love that! Overall, I really liked this book. It's got a whimsical tale with lots of spooky lore and mysteries that will surely be expanded upon. I want to see how the world of Cirque Du Freak works and what will become of Steve. Four out of five stars. A primera vista Darren Shan Parece un chico normal y corriente: le gusta jugar al fútbol con sus compañeros, reírse en clase y le encantan las arañas. Hasta que un buen día Stev, su mejor amigo, consigue entradas para un extraño espectáculo del Cirque Du Freak, que ha sido prohibido en la ciudad y en el que actúan personajes siniestros y criatura inverosímiles: un hombre lobo que casi devora a una espectadora, la mujer barbuda cuyo sedoso pelo es imposible de cortar, un ser mitad niño mitad serpiente y un lúgubre adiestrador de arañas, míster Crepsley, en el que Steve cree reconocer a un mítico vampiro. Pero lo que más fascina a Darren es Madam Octa, la venenosa y astuta tarántula, capaz de obedecer todas las órdenes de míster Crepsley, y no puede resistir la tentación de robarla e intentar domesticarla por su cuenta. Pero su atrevimiento tendrá fatales consecuencias. Reread (listened) on audio. It must have been at least 15 years since my first read, and I don't think I reread more than once when I was younger. I was amazed by how much gender typing this did--there was a really cringey moment where Darren talks about how boys don't really talk about feelings and I thought NOOOOoooOOo don't tell the youth that! This was still super fun though and I think I'm about to commit to rereading this entire series because the last book was so mindblowing. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
