Sons of Destiny (Cirque du Freak, #12)

Sons of Destiny
Author: Darren Shan
"Even a minute of dying is better than an eternity of nothingness. But in life we don't usually get to choose the time of our defining moments. We just have to stand and face them when they come, no matter what sort of a state we're in."
The denouement of the war between the vampanese and vampires has already claimed many victims, and it seems that more and more are being added every day.
Darren Shan has already experienced a lot of misery, but despite the fact that the end is near, the misery only seems to pile up.
How will the war end? Who will be the winners or losers?
Will the past forever influence the future or can certain events still be reversed?
I found the ending very impressive, but the author failed to answer some of my questions according to the plot.
The world building along with the original characters made it an unforgettable reading experience for me.
Good to mention that the name of the series is a bit misleading. In total, only 2 books are about the circus itself.
There are a number of elements in the storyline that can be experienced as shocking by young children. I read online that the books can be read from 9/11 years and older, but I do not completely agree with that. Some of the books contain many violent scenes with lots of blood and gore.
Trigger warnings:
Death, violence, murder, grief, blood, problematic family ties
