 I was planning book talk the Gone series today….But since the books are thicker than the Bible, I am a bit behind schedule. So instead, I’m going to talk about a movie that’s based on a book. The movie is not yet in theaters.

  The movie is called The Vampire’s Assistant and it talks about a teen that turns into a vampire. Most people would say that they movie is copying The Twilight Saga. Those people are wrong; The Vampire’s Assistant is book two of the Darren Shan saga, it was written by Darren Shan the same author of the Demonata series. In fact, the Darren Shan saga was written before the Demonata novels and way before the first book of Twilight.

The Vampire’s Assistant is not as dark as the Demonata novels, and deals with a teenager who makes a deal with a vampire and turns into a half vampire (a vampire’s assistant) in order to save his friend.   

This is a much more child-friendly novel than the Demonata novels and I just hope that the movie is as good as the book. The movie/book should be a fun experience for most people.
