The best and darkest part so far - By: Stampy, 30 Aug 2008 
In the third instalment of the saga, Darren Shan isin the city with Evra & Mr Crepsley, & there are many mysteries. Mr Crepsley disappears every night, bodies are piling up, & Darren starts looking at girlsin a twisting tale of horror & adrenaline.
This is the best part of the saga so far, with faster writing, a more intense plot, with some great humour & growing up to.
Shan changes his writing style with this novel, with more fast flowing action sequences, whenin the previous two were broken up by unnecessary thoughts of the character, which adds up to a well written novel.
This instalment is more action packed & twisted & horrific, with great action sequences involving Darren & Evra, & an entertaining climax.
The whole scenario involving the fat man is intriguing, & helps the whole saga evolve by diving deeper into the mysterious vampire world, by opening it up a little more with each novel, which will make you keep reading to find out how gruesome it gets.
Shan has now been labelled the master of children's horror, which is evident from this book alone, & the title alone. More gruesome than before, Tunnels of Blood is more deadly & graphic, which is only a good thingin the context of the situations.
And for those romantics, there's Debbie. City girl Debbie is added to give the plot a soft touch to our hero, & there relationship is very cute & you can't help but smile at their games & moments together.
Again the description of the surroundings & situations isn't the best, but the whole concept of vampires, action & suspense will leave plenty up to the imagination.
Like the previous two, there are dramatic twists & turnsin the storyline, which will leave you open mouthed for the first read.
Very character driven again, with Darren's thoughts coming heavily into play with use of the first person narrative, Tunnels of Blood is the best part of the saga thus far with gory & sweet moments making a great diverse read.
8.5/10
Tunnels of Blood is the best - By: Jp Osborne, 24 Mar 2007 Tunnels of blood is by far the best bookin the vampire blood trilogy.( Other trilogies are Vampire rites,Vampire war/hunter & the vampire destiny trilogy)It has loads of twists & plots which kept me reading the book all day.
great read - By: slick, 04 Sep 2006 This is a great read for anyone who likes vampire books. This book was brilliant from beginning to end with thrills, shocks & action. Also Darrens love interest added a bit of unexpected romance & comady to the book. I will defently be reading the next one I can't wait to find out what will happen to Darren & his friends.

WHAT? - By: , 24 Oct 2003 
the general plot of this book is good, but the climax is disappoining & it seems like shan has had trouble finding a good ending to a twisting plot.
Don't be put off by this book, the rest of the books are very good.
