Demon Thief: A Chilling Children’s Horror Novel Where Death Has Been Foretold: Book 2 (The Demonata)

Great book bought for my brother he is Really enjoying it

Once again Mr shan has unveiled an amazing piece of work, the premise of the book is that Kernel ( main character) has to enter the realm of the demonata to rescue his baby brother, who was stolen by a demon - seems like a typical rescue story right? Wrong, the plot in this book swiftly jumps off the rails into the world of the "demonata" where nothing is what it seems. Packed full of gore and a depth of story telling that left me able to picture every blood soaked wall, i'd reccommend this for anyone who could handle a bit of blood in their steak! The best part of this book is that if you have already read the first book of the new demonata series, then there will be some characters you will recognise from the first book, Lord Loss - although no Grubbs Grady as this book is set about 30 years before the events in Lord Loss. A great read - full of sharp turns ( and sharper claws ), this book will grab you like a demon and drag you down into it you'll only surface for breath to eat and drink! Another great read Mr shan! can't wait for Slaughter!

The second in the demonata series changes to a different main character. Good book but not my favourite in the series. I find that book drags a little bit but it's still a good read.

Rereading this book as an adult, I haf forgotten most of it and I loved it all over again. Not as scary this time but very much just as enjoyable. I couldn't put this book down. Now, onto the next one.

A very interesting and exciting book from Darren Shan.A must read and immpossable to put down,gory and intriguing.Enjoy and happy reading!

This is a very good book, very descriptive and keeps you interested. I am an adult reader and although i think they are aimed at the teenage audience i am really enjoying them. Bought my daughter book 7 without realising that they were a series so were starting from the beginning and working our way through which is not taking very long as they are easy to read.

I remembered why this book was a frustrating read after buying it again and re reading it. It doesn't follow on from lord loss (as in the characters change. The perspective and tense doesn't). arrived in fantastic condition the day after I ordered it. Perfect hardback book with an immaculate dust cover. Perfect read. A definite buy for any Darren Shan reader. Especially one who likes the Demonata series.

Again Darren shan has blown my mind. Excellent writing would recommend to all. I wouldn't let very young children read these books but this is something i would have loved as a teen. Glad i have found him now. Lord Loss gets to you, he gets under your skin, Shan pulled the wool right over my eyes. I was shocked, caught out. You have just got to read this folks i highly recommend it.

I am reading through this series for the second time now and I think I am enjoying it more this time. I originally read this book when it was originally released. Now, years later it is even better. Not to mention the fact that is has been a long while and there are subtleties that I missed last time. Darren Shan is without doubt one of the best authors around right now. If you like this I highly recommend: Peter V. Brett's "The Demon Cycle" or Kevin Hearne's "The Iron Druid Chronicles. They aren't in the young adult categories but they are amazing.

Ok

Well the quality of the book it's nice and the size too, the story is not as good as "lord loss" I'll recommend that you buy it on ebook format unless you want to have the collection

This was bought as a gift for my friend to complete her series. She loved it.

I liked this plot 👌 nicely composed the story of the book with some sudden and unexpected twist and the climax of the story will definitely make the reader to say what the f..k happened
