Es el libro número 5 de la saga de Darren Shan, en el libro se trata de las pruebas que debe terminar Darren para ser reconocido en el clan de vampiros.

La historia está bien (nada extraordinario pero entretenida) y es corta, así que puedes leerlo rápidamente y seguir con la saga. Algo que me parece importante recalcar es que si es necesario leer los libros anteriores para entender lo que sucede en este libro.

Un libro mucho más dinámico que los anteriores. Me ha recordado un poco a Asterix y las 12 pruebas, pero con vampiros, y ese final... me voy directa a por el siguiente libro!

Darren is shocked to learn that he has to face 5 terrifying trials to prove his worth as a vampire and if he fails he will be murdered in the Hall of Stakes.He has help to train but when all seems to be lost,is running away the best answer?

This was a great read. I was gripped by the trials and the tension over Darren's fate,and the impending war with the vampaneze.A really good horror read.

This book gave me the what was then the worst book-induced headache I had ever had. ;) I think I had a bit of a pause with this series and had probably forgotten some things about the characters and world, but even knowing that, I just couldn't forgive this one its flaws - character stupidity, weird plotting, gratuitous violence, least of all the huge cliffhanger ending - so it's really not that surprising it became one of the first series I expressly decided not to finish.

This was a surprisingly exciting little book. It had me there at the end and was shocked it was over already! Maybe my journey through this series isn't over as the last book made me feel.

This one was a fun, fast paced, action packed ride. A bit of an easy to expect twist but nonetheless this has been my favorite in the series so far.
