Summary: Enchanting and interesting story
Review: this book is absolutly wonderful. the characters are so realistic and i found myself falling in love with lestat himself despite the fact that he's fiction. the plot is very deep and i had a difficult time putting it down. it really made me think about humanity and what it is about because of the way it mocks society seeing that vampires are immune to almost anything. a must-read for anyone who wants a totally different view on life.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A slow-moving, but ultimately satisfying look into the Vamps
Review: We now meet Lestat, the infamous vampire from "Interview With The Vampire". Now, we see that he is not the evil-blood thristy creature of the night that Louis believed him to be, but a misunderstood vampire with somewhat of a soul(although sometimes I wonder about him). The opening is slow, especially with Lestat's homosexual relashonship with Nicholas as a mortal(I don't understand why she must make every male vampire in her stories gay or bi.. Why Anne, Why?), but it does get better when Lestat changes his mother to vampirism, and meets the Theatre Of The Vampires. All in all, this book is not the best in the series, but it is not the worst.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Anne Rice has done it again
Review: If anyone could master the way Anne Rice writes about the world of vampires I'm not likely to believe it. She's got a great sense of it and this book is likely the best of her writings.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If only Lestat really looked like Tom Cruise...
Review: This is one of my favorite Anne Rice novels. The beginning seemed kinda slow, but overall, the book is good. I liked it. It picks up after Lestat is turned into a Vampire. "THOSE WHO MUST BE KEPT" was truly a wonder. This book completely won me over, and it is the reason why I read the rest of her Vampire Cronicles. Great book, slow beginning, but... still... I liked it.

It's worth the buy, guys.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Anne Rice is amazing
Review: Anne Rice I loved and hated but when all is said and done she wrights the way only a truely great wrighter can. People feel the same about shelly some hate her and some adore her, it is all just one opion. Lestat is not only the best vampire of all times but the cutest too. I adore all of anne rice's wrighting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Powerful, provides an interesting perspective on immortality
Review: The bottom line is that this book is entertaining; a real page-turner. It also brings up thought-provoking issues about the "gift" of immortality. It's worth reading especially for Rice's clever description of real vampires. My only fuss is that sometimes Lestat sounds a bit too feminine. All in all though, a grand novel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A work of poetry!!
Review: I started out a complete Louis sympathizer, but then I read this book. Lestat takes us on a journey that completly fills the senses; you see the world through his eyes, you taste the night air, you are on his quest with him, all the while taking the world in as you have never before seen it. Few authors can put that kind of feeling into a book, but Anne Rice does it, and then some. It is a true blend of horror and romance, with a bit of the odd and erotic thrown in for good measure. A must read for book lovers of all types.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: SLOW & BORING
Review: I can't believe all the positive reviews! A good book is supposed to make you forget that you are physically reading - this only happens once in this book, and it takes place in the first few pages. I kept wishing that certain characters would die so that the plot could move along. Yeeesh- you die hard Rice fans will accept anything.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: BORING
Review: THE ONLY GOOD POINT ABOUT THIS BOOK IS THE FIRST 20 PAGES AND THE LAST 20 PAGES. ANN RICES DOES IT AGAIN, THAT IS RIGHT TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY A WASTED READ. I FIRST READ INTERVIEW AND ONE OF MY FRIENDS SAID THAT IS THE WORST ONE AND ALL OF THE OTHERS ARE OUTSTANDING BOOKS, BUT AFTER READING THE 2ND NOVEL IN THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES I MUST SAY I WILL NOT READ ANOTHER. ANN RICE IS A VERY BORING WRITTER AND I DON'T SEE WHY SO MANY PEOPLE LOVE HER NOVELS. OBVIOUSLY YOU PEOPLE GIVING HER ALL OF THESE 5 STAR RATINGS HAVE NEVER READ A GOOD NOVEL.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wow!
Review: What a fabulous book! This book is definitely worth buying- I've read it over twenty times. It's absolutely fabulous. I didn't truly like "Interview" (although that's probably because I saw the movie first) and it was my very first Anne Rice book, but I read TVL and I foumd it to be my favorite book ever. This book is most definitely one of the best! From his castle to Paris, to Cairo, to the Greek island of Marius, to New Orleans and finally to San Francisco, every adventure of Lestat's and every page in this book is enchanting and fabulously written. Definitely a favorite!
