CRAIG'S RATING

PLOT

Lestat a vampire - but very much not the conventional undead, for Lestat is the truly alive.  Lestat is vivid, ecstatic, stage-struck, and in his extravagant story he plunges from the lasciviousness of eighteenth century Paris to the demonic Egypt of prehistory; from fin-di-siècle New Orleans to the frenetic twentieth-century world of rock superstardom - as, pursued by the living and the dead, he searches across time for the secret of his own immortality.

CRAIG'S REVIEW

This is actually one of my favorites as Lestat is one of my favorite vampires.  This book is yet another reminder that Anne Rice has the ability to make her words come alive and to make the reader believe that what you read is the truth.  The songs she does in this book are less then desired but we can forgive her for this as she is an author and not a musician.  This could be due to the fact I had seen Queen Of The Damned and loved the Lestat's Songs throughout the movie? 

All and all this book is one of the best and I would highly recommend the title as it is a great book.
