Description

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “Rice allows [her vampires] to do what they do best: wreak havoc and evoke terror. All while impeccably dressed.” —The Washington Post

The vampire world is in crisis ... Old vampires, roused from deep slumber in the earth, are doing the bidding of a Voice commanding that they indiscriminately burn their kin in cities across the globe, from Paris to Mumbai, Hong Kong to San Francisco. Left with little time to spare, a host of familiar characters including Louis de Pointe du Lac, Armand, and even the vampire Lestat, must embark on a journey to discover who—or what—is driving this mysterious being.

    Anne Rice never disappoints. On the contrary, I fall in love with Lestat more and more every time.

    I read this book when it was first published, and I have to say, I find it hard to believe Anne Rice even wrote it. Perhaps she didn't. The prose is all wrong; it's utter BS. I adore most of her works. This comes off like a Jr. high girl let loose with a word programmer. Sorry. Tripe.

    I didn't find the story to be on par with the chronicles; interesting backstory and biographical data but it was not how I expected the chronicles to be reopened. I don't know whether to prepare for another book or for the series to end again.

    I'm so happy that Anne has brought back my favorite character, in what will no doubtedly be a new era of Chronicles! The breakdown of characters & storylines was helpful after such a long break between tales! I excitedly anticipate the next book!
  • Wondrously delicious!

    I read the bulk of the Vampire Chronicles during the 90s and fell in love with the writings of Anne Rice. This book is particularly compelling and I recommend it highly.

    Was hard to follow in the beginning as I was remembering but soon became lost on the story. Did not like the ending, however I realize it left us wanting to read the next book. Hope the new book comes out quickly. I am anxious to read it. I would give it 5 stars.

    Sooo glad Anne Rice is back with her Vampires. She's an artist of the genre. The book has so many characters I wish they were listed in the front of the book instead of the end. Even though I have read all her books, I couldn't remember them all. Great book.
  • Very slow

    This was quite a let down. As an avid fan over the years this new book was so slow, introduced far too many characters and wasted a great premise. The ending was quick after the prolonged and tedious buildup. All in all it was meh...

    As an avid Anne Rice follower how my heart has come to see Lestat grow and love so deeply Anne's beloved Lestat. Anne does complete justice to all her creation, showing writers out there that each book is a creation that must be cherished and revered. Thank you for yet another wonderfully written book, keep up the excellent work!!!!
  • Prince Lestat best book in the series since....

    Prince Lestat best book in the series since Queen of the Damned. I have enjoyed all the Vampire series and loved all her books but this is the best one in a long time. The others are good but this is just well thought out and complex. Great book!

    As usual Anne Rice has never let me down! I am surprised that this novel was a little lighter than the previous darker ones but I am pleased and end enjoy a happy ending. I can’t wait for the next one! Anne rice is the reason I became interested in writing.

    What a great tale! Our vampires have evolved as a species and are now rejecting the lore that has relegated them to all things evil. What a great twist from the Master of the genre! Not much of a stretch to see Lestat and his crew hanging out with the Cullens now that everyone has come to into the light.... Great Book!
