In the midst of the ghoulish excitement, true terror raises its head when Steve recognises that one of the performers -- Mr Crepsley -- is in fact a vampire! That's when the hands of fate changes the lives of them forever!

This manga is really good, nice art and have a deep and interessant story.
The start isn't that good that good but since the vol.2 it's really entertaining =)
The vol.4 is really a big turn in the story and start to be really amazing =)
Btw i never read the novel so that's why i m so happy about this manga, i hate reading/looking a same story twice in different support, generally the second time isn't as good.

Loved the books, so I was suprised to see a manga based on them. They even have a movie coming out!
Anyway, I like the manga. Although I would have prefered more mature art (after all the books are dark and are classified as kids "horror", even if I didn't find them scary at all lol) and so far as I can tell, the manga is a little different than the books, but the main story is the same. Hopefully it stays that way (I've only read the first volume).
But other than that, not too bad. I'm planning on reading it till the end.

| I thought this was a wonderful manga. I never read the books, but I do now, It's a lot different from the other mangas out there. The main charactor seems more lifelike then the other main manga characters. Also he seems to have a different attitude probably because it was a book first. |

I saw this, and I didn't know if it was a joke.
I always find it so weird when I see manga adaptions of english books. XD Now all we need is a Twilight manga. I have to admit the books are a lot better, but just because I have a good imagination. For people who don't like novels, the manga is a good replacement! |

| I'm with .::rAcHiE::. on this one. Maybe they should have hired some other team to adapt it to manga form. |

| I read the actual series that it was based on. When I read the first chapter of the manga I wasn't able to continue because when I had read the novel my images were completely different from what the mangaka had drawn, so i was contantly comparing the two. |

| Darren shan, the book by D-man on September 21st, 2006, 8:15am |

This is a good comic, if you have not read the books before hand (since it has been shortened)
I find it quite ironic that this book isn't licenced in england, when the writer of the original saga, was from england (BTW His name is really darren shan)
I suggest reading this or the book since it is a VERY good story
