The Saga of Darren Shan (aka Cirque du Freak) is a series of YA fantasy/horror/thriller novels by Irish author Darren Shan.

The series was adapted to a film entitled Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant in 2009. The series is preceded by Shan’s Saga of Larten Crepsley series.
The Saga of Darren Shan began in 1999 with the novel Cirque du Freak: A Living Nightmare. The series lasted 12 novels, concluding in 2004 with Sons of Destiny.
