Cirque Du Freak (Saga Of Darren Shan Manga #1)

Description

The manga format of Darren Shan's international best-selling vampire saga, with illustrations by Japanese artist Takahiro Arai gives a new dimension to this popular vampire saga. Darren Shan is just an ordinary schoolboy -- until he gets an invitation to visit the Cirque du Freak. There he meets Madame Octa and comes face-to-face with a creature of the night. Soon Darren is caught up in a web of terror from which he cannot escape, with his best friend's life hanging by the finest of threads. Darren must make a bargain to save Steve, but the only one that can help is not human and only deals in blood. Available for the first time in translation, this will be a must-have for Shan fans and manga aficionados alike.
