Cirque Du Freak: A Living Nightmare


Cirque Du Freak:

A Living Nightmare

By: Darren Shan

          Cirque Du Freak: A Living Nightmare is about a normal boy who wants to see a good show. It all started when Alan took a flyer from his brother about a freak show with cool pictures on it that intrigued the four friends. They devised a plan to buy tickets for the show. Darren and his friends; Steve Leonard, Tommy Jones, and Alan Morris, all wanted tickets but they could only get two because of some restriction. So all of the friends have to decide who gets the tickets. Of course Steve gets one because he went and bought the tickets with their pooled money, but how will they decide who gets the other ticket. They decide to cut up paper in a hat and throw it in the wind and whoever grabs it wins the ticket.

          As luck would have it Darren grabbed the ticket. Now all they had to do was sneak out and go to the show. It’s just that simple, and that’s how Darren’s life was flipped around. Darren and Steve got to the show but tell their parents they’re sleeping over at each other’s house. They go to that show, but knowledge and want makes it turns bad.

          Cirque Du Freak is about vampires, spiders, and all the other scary monsters under your bed. A Living Nightmare is the first book in the twelve book series that’s all out. This book is written perfectly with just the right amount of humor, and frightening things. Compared to the other books this one isn’t the most exiting but still a great book. Will you join Darren as he fights through a world of death and vampires on a hunt to survive?
