The Vampire's Assistant is by Darren Shan. The second installment in the Cirque Du Freak fantasy series. Darren and Mr. Crepsley have rejoined the Cirque Du Freak. Darren is fading fast, if he doesn't drink human blood soon he will die. He doesn't want to because he's afraid he will become a monster. Will Darren die? Will he be able to find a friend? This is a great story of fighting against the inevitable. It is creepy and somewhat violent. It certainly does not have a happy ending. Boys, especially, will love this series.
Ratings: 8th grade - 9 out of 10 - V (some violence).
