Cirque Du Freak #12: Sons of Destiny: Book 12 in the Saga of Darren Shan by Darren Shan

adventurous challenging dark emotional funny hopeful reflective sad tense fast-paced

5.0

What a book. What a series. I can’t believe I have reached the end. I devoured all 12 of these books. Cirque Du Freak is one of the most entertaining series I have ever read. 

On Sons of Destiny itself, I really really enjoyed this book, but I’m so conflicted on how I like the ending. I’m conflicted, but I also am satisfied???? While I think it’s a great twist,
I also wonder what would’ve happened if Darren had two options to pick from: stay a vampire or go back and change his younger human self’s future. All the twists, especially the fact Mr. Tiny is Darren & Steve’s father????? Like WHAT?????
All the twists were insane!
Especially the fact Mr. Tiny is Darren & Steve’s father????? Like WHAT?????


Overall, I think this is a bittersweet satisfying ending. There is heartache, but also happiness. You can see how ok Darren is about his option. He was able to give himself a second chance at life. 

Lastly, all I can say is I loved this series and my time reading it. I can’t recommend it enough.
