This is probably the most creative book Shan was written. That said, I'm afraid he doesn't have his usual handle of plot to keep up with the awesome and crazy ideas. Great stuff, great horror, disgusting macabre, but there simply isn't much to hold this particular book together.

This book made my love for Darren Shan's works rise to a level I hold no other author. This is the book I would take with me to that deserted island, I love it that much. The only bad thing was I have not been able to enjoy another book because I keep on thinking how much better this one was.

Demon Thief is about a teenage boy named Kernel Fleck who grew up in a big city with his little brother Art and his mom and dad. One day he wakes up and his brother Art is missing. Then a portal opens up above his bed and a demon appears and kidnaps him. The subsequent day he reappears in his bed with his brother Art. His parents are so scared they flee the city with Kernel and Art, moving to a small country town far away from the big city.
When school starts in the town, Kernel has to go whether he wants to or not. Shortly after school starts, his parents decide to leave on vacation, leaving Kernel and his brother with a neighbor. One day when he's at school an old woman shows up and summons a portal to the Demonata universe, unleashing demons upon the school children. One of the demons steals Art and runs back into the Demonata, forcing Kernel to chase after him.
Once Kernel lands in the Demonata he finds a group of humans calling themselves "The Disciples." They are demon hunters and Kernel must join forces with them to find his little brother Art. Shortly after entering the Demonata, he notices he has certain powers. One of them is being able to open a portal any where at any time to any place using floating light fragments that only he and a few other people can see.
Kernel and the Disciples chase the demon that has Art all the way to a castle in the Demonata. When they get there a demon master comes out to meet them. A demon master is a king of demons and is more powerful than a normal demon. This demon master is called Lord Loss and he says that for Kernel to get his brother back, Kernel must find out the name of the demon thief who stole Art.
Lord Loss teleports Kernel, and a few of the Disciples, into a giant maze where Kernel must find the demon thief, and find out his true name. Kernel finds the demon thief and guesses his name, but he guesses wrong. Lord Loss reveals the demon thief's true name: "Kernel." Kernel had stolen Art from the Demonata, while Kernel was asleep, because he wanted a brother, but Art is really a demon.
Kernel goes home to find out that his parents have moved on and tried to forget about Kernel leaving. But when Kernel shows up, they don't know how to deal with it. So soon after Kernel's reappearance his parents hint that they don't want him, and that they wish he had never come back. So Kernel takes the hint and leaves to go back to the leader of the Disciples. The leader tells Kernel that Kernel is one of the pieces that make up the Kah-Gash. The Kah-Gash is the one weapon powerful enough to destroy the demons forever.

Surprised as a was this book, the second of the serie, had another main caracther, I got the point. In this book you learn more about the world of the Demonata, through another view.
Like the very first one, this book also has a slow start. But once it has started, it never really stops. This just is a great book. Even better than the first!
