#1 New York Times Bestselling author - Surrender to fiction's greatest creature of the night - Book II of the Vampire Chronicles

The vampire hero of Anne Rice’s enthralling novel is a creature of the darkest and richest imagination. Once an aristocrat in the heady days of pre-revolutionary France, now a rock star in the demonic, shimmering 1980s, he rushes through the centuries in search of others like him, seeking answers to the mystery of his eternal, terrifying exsitence.

Praise for The Vampire Lestat
 
“Frightening, sensual . . . Anne Rice will live on through the ages of literature. . . . To read her is to become giddy as if spinning through the mind of time, to become lightheaded as if our blood is slowly being drained away.”San Francisco Chronicle
 
“Fiercely ambitious, nothing less than a complete unnatural history of vampires.”The Village Voice
 
“Brilliant . . . its undead characters are utterly alive.”—The New York Times Book Review
 
“Luxuriantly created and richly told.”—The Cleveland Plain Dealer

    The Vampire Lestat is now one of my all time favorites. Anne Rice's attention to detail in her writing of the life of not only Lestat. But of Marius and Armand, is truly a masterpiece in supernatural fiction literature. Anne Rice thank you for this great book. I loved "Interview With A Vampire" but I loved "The Vampire Lestat" much more. I am very excited to read your new addition to the Vampire Chronicles "Prince Lestat" which is out today. I will be picking up my hard copy today. Thanks for this amazing book.
