Vampire Destiny is the fourth and final trilogy in The Saga of Darren Shan by author Darren Shan. The trilogy included The Lake of Souls, Lord of the Shadows and Sons of Destiny. This series goes more in depth on the Lord of Shadows and the future where he rules, and Harkat's secrets of his past life are finally revealed. The main theme in the final trilogy appears to be destiny. Darren and Harket learn of the true fate of the world they know following the War of Scars, and it is revealed that both Darren and Steve are pawns to the hand of fate, in which either one of them is destined to bring destruction to the world.

Darren Shan along with allies Vancha March and Little People, Harkat Mulds, venture into the night to defeat the Vampaneze and end the war between the two. However, while one is defeated, the other shall become the Lord of the Shadows, the ruler of the dark who will destroy the world after the war. Darren must now help his friend Harkat find his true name and spirit in The Lake of Souls book. In Lord of the Shadows Darren returns to his hometown at the Cirque where he discovers his sister, who he hasn't seen in nearly two decades or more, and soon encounters the Vampaneze ending in a one last fight, which continues in Sons of Destiny where the final fight comes between Darren Shan and the Vampaneze lord, Steve, and as they are badly injured Darren kills Steve, and makes a dying Steve angry and Steve kills Darren so neither can live. However, Mr. Tiny resurrects Darren as a Little People in the final book of the Darren Shan series.

In the The Lake of Souls Darren embarks with Little Person, Harkat Mulds to find Harkat's true identity. They are forced to do difficult tasks, but they later find the truth in the Lake of Souls. He is later identified, at the end of the book that Harkat is Kurda Smahlt (a vampire traitor) who betrayed the clan to save the vampires and vampaneze from the War of Scars. Even though Harkat met Kurda, he still exists.

In the Lord of the Shadows Darren and Harkat return to Darren's hometown, in which Darren finds out that his sister, Annie, has grown up and has a kid. Meanwhile, Darren and Harkat meet a boy whose name is Darius. They take him around the Cirque Du Freak, and give him a free ticket. Tommy, Darren's friend from before he was a half vampire, is seen at Cirque Du Freak and is later killed at a soccer game. Darren is badly injured by R.V. and Morgan James, and is going through the purge. Later at the end of the book, Debbie, Darren, Harkat, Vancha, Alice, and Evra go after Morgan James and R.V. when Shancus is kidnapped by R.V. and Morgan, and kidnap Darius, who is revealed to be Steve's son (Mr. Tall is killed in the act, when Morgan James and R.V. come). Then they are lured to the old cinema theater in which they first went to the Cirque. There they meet Steve and work out a deal: Steve gives Shancus to Darren, and Darren gives Darius to Steve. However, Steve twists and breaks Shancus' neck, killing him. Steve, Morgan James, and the other vampaneze escape, but not before Steve reveals that Darius is Annie's son.
