The City trilogy

The City trilogy was written for adult readers under the name Darren O'Shaughnessy instead of Darren Shan. The third book was never published and the series was out of print for a period of time. They were published by Orion Publishing Group.

The first two books have been reprinted, with the first, renamed to Procession of the Dead released in Spring 2008 and the second released in March 2009. They have been re-edited, and republished under the new pen-name of D.B. Shan, to try to prevent children from reading them.
