Brothers to the Death

2012Darren Shan

4.1/5

An amazing ending to an amazing series. 'Brothers to the Death' was absolutely fantastic. So full of twists, surprises, excitement, heartbreak, romance, everything you need to make a book perfect. I've loved Larten Crepsley since 'Cirque Du Freak' but this series has made me love him even more, if that was even possible. He's one of my favourite fictional characters ever. I would gladly defend him to the death. He's such a unique character. You'll never ever read a book about a character like Larten Crepsley. There is no one like him. That's one of the things I love about him. I also think he's brave, strong-willed and extremely caring, even if he doesn't usually show it in a very affectionate way. I love his relationship with Gavner Purl. At first, it upset me a bit because Larten wouldn't act towards him in a fatherly manner but when Gavner became his assistant, I felt their relationship grow, even without open affection from Larten still. I also loved both his relationships with Alicia and Arra. Two completely different women but who I love equally. Alicia is such a sweet character, so romantic and caring and loving. And then Arra is tough, brave, strong, everything a vampire is. She still loves Larten though, even if it's not as romantic or strong a relationship as Larten and Alicia's was.I could probably talk for the world about this book but I won't. It really was perfect though. The nineteenth chapter had me in floods of tears. I won't say why. You'll have to read it to find out! ;D But really, it's so upsetting. I also started crying again at the very end. I just felt so emotional. Knowing there'll be no more books about Larten Crepsley, just kills me. I just love him so much. It's sad to see him go. It's a very tough goodbye. But he'll live on in my heart. He has a special place there. All I need to do is re-read The Saga of Darren Shan and The Saga of Larten Crepsley many times in the future. He will never be forgotten. I seriously recommend this book and ALL of Darren Shan's books to everyone, people of all ages. I can guarantee that even when I'm an adult, I'll still love these books as much as I do now. Darren Shan is a perfect writer. He's my inspiration. I love him so much. It's because of him that I want to be a writer. I rated this book five stars because it deserves it and I loved it so much. Go read it! <3
