Katie MacAlister’s Goth series is a two-book young adult paranormal romance set at a traveling gothic faire. Got Fangs? (2005) introduces a teenage girl who discovers that the gothic faire she is visiting is home to real supernatural beings, including vampires. Circus of the Darned (2006) continues the story as she gets further entangled with the faire’s inhabitants.
The books are connected to MacAlister’s larger Dark Ones universe, but they are written for a younger audience and have a lighter tone. The series blends teen romance, humor, and paranormal adventure in a way that is accessible to readers who might not be ready for MacAlister’s adult novels. At just two books, the Goth series is a quick read that gives a taste of the Dark Ones world from a young adult perspective.
