Now that the vile Lord Oda is dead, Taro and his friends are safe in the mountain lair of the ninjas. Or so they think. When a homing pigeon arrives with news of Taro's mother's whereabouts, Taro sets out for the Tendai monastery - without stopping to consider why the pigeon, which was given to his mother months ago, took so long to arrive. Soon, Taro, Hana and Hiro find themselves in a trap, as strange new creatures invade their lives and familiar enemies surround them – and the most deadly enemy of all is their old friend Yukiko. In the end, despite his vampire abilities, Taro is helpless to prevent the death of his mother. Furious and grief stricken, haunted by her mute and beseeching ghost, he determines to recover the object which Lord Oda was so desperate to procure before he died: the Buddha Ball, source of limitless power. There are just two problems: first, Lord Oda is not dead. And second, the Buddha Ball is not where Taro thought. If Taro is to fulfill his destiny, he must face his arch enemy on an equal battlefield - for Lord Oda is a vampire now too. And then, to make peace with his mother, and recover the Buddha ball, Taro must go to hell and back...

Darren Shan a une passion : les araignées. Alors qu'il assiste, en compagnie de son meilleur ami Steve, à la représentation clandestine d'un cirque spécialisé dans le monstrueux et le grotesque, il tombe en admiration devant une gigantesque tarentule savante du nom de Madame Octa. Bien que celle-ci soit la propriété d'un effrayant personnage, Mr Crepsley, Darren n'hésite pas à la voler. Mais celle-ci pique Steve. Pour sauver son ami, Darren n'a qu'une solution... qui va lui demander un sacrifice énorme !

Darren Shan polako se navikava na svoje novo stanje. Već je dovoljno vremena prošlo otkako je prestao biti čovjekom. Svjestan je da mora piti ljudsku krv da bi preživio, ali naučio je kako to činiti a da pritom nikoga ne ozlijedi i ne bude uhvaćen. Tijelo mu se promijenilo, snažan je i spretan i sve bolje se može brinuti za sebe. Putujući Cirkus nakaza u koji ga je doveo njegov mentor, gospodin Crepsley, Darrenu je postao pravi dom. Čini se i da su Darren i gospodin Crepsley uspjeli pronaći zajednički jezik unatoč nesuglasicama i mržnji koju je Darren osjećao prema njemu na samom početku svojeg poluvampirskog života. Isprva zastrašujuć, cirkus će se pokazati kao sasvim dobro mjesto za život. Iza neobičnih likova koji ondje obitavaju kriju se dobri ljudi koje će Darren zavoljeti, a među njima i pronaći pravog prijatelja i pravu ljubav. Naravno, i pravi neprijatelj krije se na istom mjestu, a Darren i njegov prijatelj Evra jedini su koji se mogu s njim suočiti.

Što se dogodi kada postanete vampir protiv svoje volje? Morate piti ljudsku krv kako bi preživjeli, ali se ne prepoznajete u ulozi zlikovca iz horor filmova. A nekoć ste bili običan dječak – pristojan i drag. Dilema mladog pripovjedača i glavnog lika, Darrena Shana, u ovom je nastavku još izraženija. U prvoj knjizi, Darren pristaje postati poluvampirom kako bi spasio život prijatelju Steveu. Da bi sve bilo po pravilima on mora odglumiti svoju smrt, biti živ zakopan i onda biti iskopan kao polučovjek bez doma i prijatelja. Ovaj nastavak prati Darrenov novi, usamljeni život poluvampira, dok mu u žilama teče prokleta krv njegovog tutora gospodina Crepsleyja. Naravno, Darren mora mnogo naučiti o svom novom natprirodnom stanju. Na primjer, ne mogu mu narasti očnjaci, iako je mislio da se to događa svim vampirima. Ne može mijenjati oblik niti letjeti, a jedini učinak češnjaka je loš zadah… No, najteže će mu biti kad se pridruži Cirkusu nakaza, predstavi koja je prouzročila nevolje njemu i Steveu. Čovjek-vuk, Dječak-zmija i cijela galerija bizarnih likova ponudit će uzbuđenje van svih očekivanja. A ako to niste dosada, čitajući ovaj nastavak jednostavno ćete zavoljeti Darrena, dječaka koji će učiniti sve za prijateljstvo.

Samen proberen ze een bestaan op te bouwen vrij van demonen. Wanneer een beroemde filmregisseuse Derwisj vraagt om haar te assisteren bij een horrorfilm, lijkt dat een goede manier om de dagelijkse sleur te doorbreken en een leuke tijd te hebben.
