A special message from Darren:
As a keen collector myself, I'm absolutely delighted that HarperCollins have created a limited special edition of Hell's Heroes, to mark the end of The Demonata series. It's been a long, hard, BLOODY road, and this is a neat, extra treat to find at the end of it!!! I've managed to secure a few copies of the special edition for my own collection, and this is your chance to win a copy for YOURS!!! There's never before been such a small print run of any edition of my books, so these are destined to become some of the most sought-after Darren Shan items in the years ahead. If you don't try to win a copy now, the opportunity will most likely never come your way again!!
May the luck of the Disciples be with you!!!!
