A review by 4saradouglas
Birth of a Killer by Darren Shan

3.0

I probably would have enjoyed this more if I have read any of the other Cirque du Freak books first. If you read it first, as I did, it's entertaining enough, but kind of lacks something. I assume if I'd read the other books first I would already know some of these characters and care more about their beginnings. The book just started to get interesting in the last chapter... pretty disappointing.
