|summary='The Spook's Blood'' is an enjoyable read with plenty of suspense and tension, but it ultimately feels like filler before the final epic conflict between Tom and the Fiend.

One might've thought that having bound The Devil in a massive underground pit and cut his head off, life would become a little easier for Thomas Ward, Spook in-training. Although the Fiend has undoubtedly been weakened, he has many loyal servants set on putting him back together so that he can reap terrible eternal vengeance on the few brave enough to fight him. While witch assassin Grimalkin, a dark and unlikely ally, evades the Fiend's minions and keeps his head separate from his body, it is up to Tom, Alice and The Spook to work out a way to destroy him permanently. But Grimalkin cannot run forever, and the Fiend's most powerful servants are encircling Tom and his allies, forcing them to fight with everything they have, just to survive.
For fans of horror wrapped inside the webs of a top-notch plot, Darren Shan is at your service with his cracking Demonata series. The Bookbag loved [[Blood Beast (The Demonata) by Darren Shan]]. Meanwhile, one of the most controversial young adult writers around, Melvin Burgess, has his own take on witchcraft in his beautifully told story, [[Burning Issy by Melvin Burgess|Burning Issy]].
