Humiliated and ashamed, Jebel sets out on a quest to the faraway home of a legendary fire god to beg for inhuman powers so that he can become the most lethal of men. He must take with him a slave, named Tel Hesani, to be sacrificed to the god. It will be a dark and brutal journey filled with lynch mobs, suicide cults, terrible monsters, and worse, monstrous men. But to Jebel, the risk is worth it. To retrieve his honor . . . To wield unimaginable power . . . To become . . . The thin executioner Inspired by the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, international bestselling master of horror Darren Shan takes readers on a thrilling, fast-paced journey into a nightmarish world where compassion and kindness are the greatest crimes of all.

I read this book in one long sitting, on a train.This one is great. I've read about eighteen of Shan's work, and I could see resemblance and difference aplenty. There was little over the top salughter such as in the demonata, more positivity than in the Darren shan series, but you still got that "Oh" moment of someone being horrible. I simply cannot recommend this book enough.5 stars. THWACK!I LOVED THIS BOOK!Jebel Rum is a thin kid. Even if he eats like me, he still remains thin and small and weak.His father, Rashed Rum, is the EXECUTIONER! And that's not a fact to sneer at. Executioners are only second to the Ruler of the Abu Aineh.Rashed is the best Executioner they ever had ir ever would have. Only one chop and heads roll. In Abu Aineh, Every crime, whether it was murder of a king or stealing a piece of moldy rotten bread, was punished in one way and one way
This is a book that really drawing me in! Darren Shann never fail to attract my attention of reading his books. I like his Cirque Du Freak books and this one is also is a very good premise. It starts with an awful beginning as the head rolling and also the sound of how the head cut from the neck of the prisoners. I thought, "I'm not good with with this dreadful reading stuff". Turn out, it is not so bad at all.Thin executioner is actually introducing us a very thin young man who is on a quest
The Thin Executioner was a decent book. I'd give it 3.5 stars. As a Darren Shan fanatic, i had high expectations for this book. i expected a twisted, complicated plot with sinister details and gruesome imagery that would make Steven Spielberg shiver. However, it wasn't that fulfilling at all. Pro's:1. the huge array of characters that the two protagonists meets. They were all interesting and had different personalities (some were freaking cannibals, some were people who hurt themselves to repent
A great book for when you want to read Uncle Toms Cabin, but the gritty YA fantasy version, and you wish it had less character development, more cannibalism, and that the names were impossible to pronounce.
This one is the most enjoyable book I have read lately. I was expecting to find a really engaging book from Darren Shan and was not disappointed at all! The imagination of lots of cultures, the adventures the protagonists experience, the character development of the main boy... The ideas and throughts they exchanged about life, death, religion, society... I loved every aspect of this book and I gladly recommend this to everyone!
I love Darren Shan books, I just don't read enough of them. I've read his self-titled series, all 12 books and that's what got me into his writing, but I so need to read more of his books, for sure, and reading this one just proved my thoughts.This was more of an adventure novel, which isn't something I expect from Darren Shan - I'm used to his paranormal/supernatural novels - yet this was addicting and it fully took me on a journey. It's a story I'm never going to forget, but I feel that it
