7. In the seventh book, the group meet up with lady Evanna, but what is her gift to Larten upon arrival?

Answer: Frogs bred to show the face of Arra Sails

Evanna gave this gift to Larten to give him a moment to reflect. This was special because, as vampires cannot be photographed, this was the nearest thing he could get to a picture.

8. In Book Eight, 'Allies of the Night', we get the sad news of Paris's death, but how did he die?

Answer: Locked in battle with a bear

Darren wanted to go to the funeral, but rules dictate that at least one Prince has to be absent from Vampire Mountain at any one time. The other princes had known Paris longer, so it was only fair that Darren had to stay behind.

9. 'Killers of the Dawn'...the saddest book of the saga! But who dies?

Answer: Larten Crepsley

While the heroes thought they had thrown the Lord of the Vampaneze to his death, he was only a servent to the real Lord of the Vampaneze.
