Slawter - The Best of the Series? - Rated
I read this book in 1 day. It was that gripping. It is a "Must Read Book" for ages 10+. You will be thrilled by the way that it is written. I am glad that Darren Shan wrote this book.

Really good - Rated
Pleased to say that the third novel in the Demonata trilogy is just as good as the first 2! This time the story returns to Grubbs Grady (along with Bill-E and Dervish, of course). A famous horror movie director has heard about Dervishes collection of books about demons and wants his (and Grubb's) assistance in the making of her new movie - Slawter.

Dervish, Grubbs and Bill-E arrive on the isolated movie site and as soon as the first scene is shot - a scene in which a boy is killed by a demon - Grubbs knows that there is a big problem with the movie...it's using real deomons!.

Another brilliant entry in the Demonata Saga - so good I read it in one night. Highly reccommended.

Pure Horror!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Rated
My title, pure horror, is definatly true. If you read this amazing book, you'll be obsessed to Daren Shan's blood-curdling, gruesome, chilling facts and I gurantee that they'll send shivers down your spine.
This read is filled with sheer terror that, I promise, you won't regret if you buy and read this book!

Grubbs is back - Rated
The 3rd book in the Demonata and we're back with my favorite characters Grubbs and Dervish.

To fully appreciate this book you need to read the Lord Loss and Demon Thief first, but I think you'd still enjoy this book even if you haven't read the previous 2.

I couldn't put this book down and was left hungry for more at the end.

I think this book would make a good film - Rated
Which is apt considering where most of the action takes place.
Grubbs, Dervish and Billy are invited by horror film producer Davida Haym (I think that was her name, I can't really remember) to oversee the design of huge robotic demons which are going to be used in her upcoming film, Slawter.
The designs are brilliant, and they could be mistaken for the real thing...
Anywho, people start going missing and demons run riot, Lord Loss shows up and there is yet another showdown at the end. Simple.
In this book Grubbs finds his magical powers vastly improved- He is melting holes in walls, reattaching severed limbs and severing a few of his own, and that's the most appealing thing of this series (not just this book) for me- it is such an ambiguous medium, there is literally anything which can happen with the simple explanation of 'it's magic', and when the action is this intense that's fine by me.

A vast improvement on Demon Thief and Lord Loss. Very exciting.
