Number One Master of Horror

I hope that some of you already know who will be the target of my post. Today I am going to write about Darren Shan. The title "Number One Master of Horror" is written on the covers of some of his books.

His real name is Darren O'Shaughnessy. He was born in London but when he was six years old his family moved to Ireland. His first children book Cirque du Freak made him really famous. This book was the first part of a twelve-book series called the "Saga of Darren Shan". It is about a boy called Darren Shan (yes it is not a mistake, the author is the main character of the series). Darren becomes the assistant of a vampire called Larten Crepsley to save his best friend's life. The "Saga" is about his adventures.

After finishing the "Saga" he began to write a new series the "Demonata" which is about three teenagers who are fighting against demons. But I won't tell any further information about the Demonata because my chosen book on the Reading and Writing II course is part of this series.
I really like his books because he writes in an understandable way and the characters are like real people. We could even beleive that those things could happen in real life as well. Although he writes horror-like books I don't think that they are scary. I must admit that the Saga is not a horror series. I think they are adventure books instead. However, the Demonata is a real horror series. I don't find them frightening although there are some brutal parts in these books like a demon spits acid at a person whose flash melts away from his face... Maybe this is because I only read them and I am sure that if I watched one of the stories on TV it would be really fearful.

In my opinion everybody who likes horror should read one of Darren Shan's works as they are real masterpieces . So hurry to the next book strore!

Introduction

Hello my readers!
My name is Katalin Vasas. I am a 19-year-old girl from Zalaszentgrót which is a small town in Zala County. In my freetime I like reading books -especially the books by Darren Shan, J.K. Rowling, Meg Cabot....XD-, surfing on the Internet, making animals and flowers from beads, and when I really don't know what to do then I fold some origami cranes and hang them out in my room. (You can see that there is a large amount of "trash" in my room XD.)

I'm sure that many of you would like to ask me why is my blog's URLaddress "2012babydragons.blogspot.com". Well, I originally wanted "babydragon2012", but this one has already been occupied :(I am so sad!!!:( and so came "2012babydragons" (but this is also good:). So "dragon" is because I am crazy of dragons, I think they are fantastic!!!! I thought that many people find adult dragons scary so I chose "babydragon" -babydragons are so cute! The number "2012" has a special meaning for me because the maya calendar ends in 2012 and many experts say that a new and better era will come.

I think it's enough for today.

I hope that everybody could understand what I wanted to say, but sometimes I cannot express myself correctly in English and I also make some grammatically mistakes when I'm typing. So please forgive me and send me a message if you found some mistakes.
See you soon,
Kati
