  Later into the story they found a vampanze, cousins to the vampires. Vampanzes are more brutal than the regular vampire but vampanzes keeps their word. Darren soon finds out why they came to this city. Every night Mr.Creplsy went out so Darren and Erva followed him one night. They soon figured out that Mr.Crepsly has been hunting the vampanze. Darren and Erva are now helping Mr.Crepsly hunt down a wild vampanze.

  I truly recommend this book because this book is interesting about how vampires and half vampires are different from eachother. How to kill a vampire and a vampanze and other facts. I recommned this book to the ages of 10-14.
