Summary: Arrrghhh
Review: I thought Anne was getting herselt together with Blackwood Farm, but it seems she just fell apart witrh this book. I adored all of her books from the time i was 13, and i had hopes this one would be better then it was.The main part of it was boring, and at times, i fought not to just throw it acros the room. It got mildly interesting towards the ending, but not enough to redeem it really. I will not be being this new, that's definite

Summary: Wait a second.
Review: Well it looks like the reviews are going to be mixed. I love the new style and voice. It was risky from Anne's perspective to try something new. Everyone: this is a new and important perspective into Lestat's character. Come on! This is his first narrative since "Memnoch the Devil" and the voice had to change to reflect his evolution.
This book was well written despite what others say. The style actually reminds me a lot of Holden from "Catcher in the Rye." 5 stars, thank you very much.

Summary: Anne Rice's most eloquent tale to date!
Review: I love the language and voice of this author. All of her stories are worlds unto themselves but this was truly a masterpiece. There is so much raw emotion in the character Lestat--anger, jealousy, possessiveness, love, lust, guilt, tenderness--that you feel in touch with him as a though he were a living, breathing entity. In this book, more than any previously, you really see the evolution of the Lestat character. He BECOMES. No more is he merely the quixotic, daring and beloved brat prince. He is so much more than that. The story is full and rich, as are all of Rice's works. But there is something here that I think is quite different from her other works. I felt like I was reading something personal and unique in this book, and it touched me as no other book has before. At the end of the story I was sobbing, and I couldn't tell if it was from sorrow or illumination. This is a rare work, a priceless work. On the surface, this is a fun and exciting installment of the Vampire Chronicles. Lestat is at his very devilish best. But looking beneath that, to the raw core of the story, you can really see the fully blossomed talent of a modern master of the craft who has shared a great gift with us, her readers. I don't think I'll ever look at life and death, sin and salvation, the same way again.

Review: This book was terrible!!! I cannot stress to you how bad this book is, and I have been waiting for it for so long! I feel so cheated! Where is the Anne Rice of The Witching Hour?

Summary: it was great!
Review: I thought that this book was fantastic! It was not as good as some of her early books, and I wish it had been longer- that is why I only gave the book 4 stars. The story was about Lestat and the Mayfairs, which is why Maharet and Kahyman were passing characters. I would love to see more books about the other vampires as well, but this book stands alone as being a great story about Taltos, Lestat and The Mayfair witches. I have been waiting for that combo for years (and was hoping merrick would be more like)and was so glad to see it! It was also very riveting- I finished it the same day I purchased it! And for those who didn't like it and want to slam it, remember a few things. First, you don't have to buy it. Second, Ms. Rice recently lost her husband, so be grateful that she has written anything for us at all! Third, I really doubt that anyone could do this better than Anne Rice. She is a talented, wonderful person who really cares about her fans.

Summary: Hmmmmmmm....
Review: Our dear Lestat is back, and this time he's gotten hip with the times. (Sometimes to excess, but what can I say? It's probably intentional..) Like most of Mrs. Rice's books, this one reads through at a good clip, then allows you to go back and reread for the deeper meanings and complexities that exist in her novels. And Lestat's criticism of his "Dear Readers" was delightful! I laughed out loud. The plot may get a bit silly, with half human drug lords and such, but overall, our narrator ...well, narrates... with his unmistakeable style. If this is truly Lestat's last book , then by the end at least we all know that he finally did something RIGHT.

Summary: Fun meeting of the vampires with the Mayfair witches
Review: Like most of his kind, the vampire Lestat is more a sinner than a saint but since his meeting and metamorphous after dealing with Memnoch, he wants to be on the side of the angels. He proves it again and again when he and Merrick Mayfair help destroy Quinn's evil doppelganger Goblin. He shows his kind nature again when he turns Mona Mayfair, the love of Quinn's immortal life, into a vampire after being at death's door for two years. At Blackwood Farm, he helps a trapped spirit move into the light instead of being trapped between worlds. When Mona begs Lestat to find her Taltos daughter, he moves Heaven and earth and calls upon the mother of all vampires to help him locate the land of the Taltos. When they reach the Caribbean Island where they are held prisoners by drug lords, he liberates them and brings them back to Rowan Mayfair the woman he truly loves but will not touch. Lestat is one of the most fascinating characters in fiction today. He is living (pardon the pun) proof that one who chooses evil can also turn to the light and hope for redemption from some higher power. The meeting of the vampires with the Mayfair witches is a peaceful one and readers will be very pleased that these are two different forces of nature that can not only co-exist but thrive in proximity to each other. Anne Rice has written another special novel brimming with creativity, action and challenges the readers to question their ideas of good, evil, redemption and honor.

Summary: WHY OH WHY????????
Review: I didn't even bother buying this one, I read it in the store and almost tore it in half. Now I know how Lestat felt when he read Louis' book in "The Vampire Lestat". Kaymen is mentioned once, as a passing thing, Maharet is in there as well, almost a cameo. Armand? Who knows? Maybe with Sybelle and Benji. And Louis is mentioned by name maybe three times. David is no where to be seen. How did Lestat feel about Louis going into the sun? Why are the Talamasca suddenly really friendly with Lestat in the person of Stirling? And Rowan...how does anyone like her? First she runs off on Michael with Lasher, then she pimps her minor neice off on him, runs off on him again with Ash and now Lestat is head over heels with her. Yes, I hate this book. Lestat promises Rowan eternal "pure" love and the "Dark Gift" whenever. She leaves Michael because of him. And Lestat visits the Pope. Do not buy this book. You have been warned.
