IT WAS an age of tragic mistakes. For me, the tragedy began fourteen years earlier when, mesmerized by a vampires amazing performing tarantula, I stole it from him. After an initially successful theft, everything went to hell, and I paid for my crime with my humanity. Faking my own death, I left my family and home, and travelled the world with the Cirque Du Freak, as the assistant to a blood-drinking creature of the night.
My nameâs Darren Shan. Iâm a half-vampire.
Iâm also â through a series of events so astounding I still have trouble believing they really happened â a Vampire Prince. The Princes are the leaders of the vampire clan, respected and obeyed by all. There are only five of them â the others are Paris Skyle, Mika Ver Leth, Arrow and Vancha March.
Iâd been a Prince for six years, living within the Halls of Vampire Mountain (the stronghold of the clan), learning the customs and traditions of my people, and how to be a vampire of good standing. Iâd also been learning the ways of warfare, and how to use weapons. The rules of battle were essential components of any vampireâs education, but now more so than ever â because we were at war.
Our opponents were the vampaneze, our purple-skinned blood-cousins. Theyâre a lot like vampires in many ways, but alien to us in one key area â they kill whenever they drink blood. Vampires donât harm those they feed from â we simply take a small amount of blood from each human we target â but vampaneze believe itâs shameful to feed without draining their victims dry.
