Reviews
On Feb 13 2015, a reader said:
When I heard that Anne Rice was going to be publishing another book for The Vampire Chronicles, I was beyond excited. It was those exact books that helped me get through some of my toughest times from 2006-2008 after I had a wreck, unable to walk and dealing with multiple surgeries that inevitably cost me losing a leg. During that time, Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles swept me away into a totally different and intriguing world and she easily became one of my favorite authors. I am forever grateful to her for being a massive support (unknowingly) during those times.
With that being said, you can see why I was excited about Prince Lestat and Anne Rice did it again. Lestat and so many other slumbering, old companions re-entered my world. It was exciting to read about what they had been up to and what they are doing now. It was all brilliantly pieced together in this novel; each character having chapters all to themselves. There's a sort of maturing in Lestat (though, he's still the Brat Prince) and this radiating, exciting energy felt whenever all of them come together again. Anne Rice weaves the ancient with the modern in beautiful ways, so this book is sure to draw crowds from old and new alike. I could write so much more, because this was such an exciting read for me, but I don't want to spoil anything. If you're a fan of Anne Rice and have yet to read this book, you won't be disappointed. If you're new to Anne Rice, dive in and enjoy The Vampire Chronicles and be prepared to have these beautiful, shadowy companions linger in your heart forever.
Thank you, Anne, for providing us all with another installment about the best vampires in history!
