Summary: Read this first.......if you get a chance
Comment: I read the series out of order, sitting through Blood Canticle first (eeew)because I didnt know this was still available. It is still the best. If you have seen the movie, know that the book was first, and the stories do change from page to screen. First off, the lives of Louis & Lestat are far more tragic than you could ever feel the depth of on screen. There is history, traditions, subtle nuances in here you just cant watch in a movie. The characters are strongly developed. They truely are the saddest group of vampires you will ever meet. These characters are the strongest, and if you dont fall in love with them in just a few pages, your'e ,ost likely made of stone ! Ms Rice has taken a creature formerly associated with sheer terror, and made it the very sourceof all human emotion, suffering, and pain. I notice that alot of people fall in love with books in what is referred to as the "prime" of thier lives. In reading this, one can see why. The simple allure of being "perfect" and "preserved" forever. To have a lifetime to change, grow, and perfect ones true image. Its a book you cant put down ! VIVE Lestat !

Summary: Poetic, erotic, and deeply engrossing.....
Comment: The first book of the Vampire Chronicals was the finest of the series. Anne Rice's words are spellbinding, and almost force you to feel Louis's pain, horror, and despair at killing, which he must do to live, as well as the ecstacy of the killing, the taking of blood. His love for Claudia is a palpable thing, you can almost touch it, as well as his hatred of Lestat. The writing is lyrical, almost musical. Some find the homoerotic imagery disturbing (Although as Rice's vampires have no sex, I really don't know why). I am of the opinion that Louis is her finest character, far subtler and richer than the over-the-top Lestat. I read this book in one ten-hour sitting, I became so engrossed so quickly. Anne Rice has written many wonderful (and a few laughable) books, but this is her jewel

Summary: UGH!
Comment: After everyone's review I thought, wow this must be a great book. Boy was I wrong what a WASTE OF MONEY. This was the first book that I picked up written by Anne Rice and it is my last.
