Chelsea Magda
Chelsea Magda asked Darren Shan:

Did you ever think your books would ever become so popular? Was there ever a time when you wanted to give up and things didn't go your way? Also, are any of your characters inspired by family or friends?

Amber Lynn
Amber Lynn asked Darren Shan:

What part of the Cirque Du Freak series did you made you feel sad the most? For me, it would be that Darren had to give up his humanity and then Kurda Smahlt's death ): Even in death, may Kurda Smahlt be triumphant (:

A Goodreads user
A Goodreads user asked Darren Shan:

How did you feel when you killed Kurda? I remember crying. He was one of my favorite vampires in the whole series. And what about Darren? How could you make yourself kill him off? He was soo amazing! - BTW; I loved the conclusion to the series either way, thank you for your work.
