BLOOD CANTICLE
I don't know how true this is but I was trawling the internet and I had found a synopsis for the upcoming book "Blood Canticle" Enjoy!
Anne Rice continues her astonishing Vampire
Chronicles in a new novel that begins where Blackwood Farm left off — and
tells the story of Lestat’s quest for redemption, goodness, and the love of
Rowan Mayfair.
Welcome back to Blackwood Farm. Here are all of the brilliantly conceived
characters that make up the two worlds of vampires and witches: Mona Mayfair,
who’s come to the farm to die and is brought into the realm of the undead; her
uncle, Julian Mayfair, guardian of the family, determined to forever torment
Lestat for what he has done to Mona; Rowan Mayfair, brilliant neurosurgeon and
witch, who finds herself dangerously drawn to the all-powerful Lestat; her
husband, Michael Curry, hero of the Mayfair Chronicles, who seeks Lestat’s help
with the temporary madness of his wife; Ash Templeton, a 5,000-year-old Taltos
who has taken Mona’s child; and Patsy, the country-western singer, who returns
to avenge her death at the hands of her son, Quinn Blackwood. Delightfully, at
the book’s centre is the Vampire Lestat, once the epitome of evil, now pursuing
the transformation set in motion with Memnoch the Devil. He struggles
with his vampirism and yearns for goodness, purity and love, as he saves Patsy’s
ghost from the dark realm of the Earthbound, uncovers the mystery of the Taltos
and unselfishly decides the fate of his beloved Rowan Mayfair.
A story of love and loyalty, of the search for passion and promise, Blood
Canticle is Anne Rice at her finest.
