 ... did feel like I was being transported back in time throughout Lestat's tale and really trusted Rice as a story teller. She introduces us to so many interesting places and characters and concepts that this is almost a philosophical piece and a real thought provoker; it isn't just entertaining but also like a life lesson! Lestat as a character is really a true rock star and I absolutely, especially as a rock music fan, love the idea that Lestat would wish to become a rock star in the modern age. He is a really endearin...more

Premium Review The Vampire Lestat - Anne Rice: I fell in love reading this book (883 words)
by Diane@home - written on 17/05/02 (Very useful, 195 readings)

I have always been a bit of a sucker (forgive the pun) for a bad boy, and here he is the baddest of them all. Lestat De Lioncourt, I could hear him purring the words Anne Rice had written in his seductive French accent. He was telling his story directly to me as I read this book for the first time. I was seduced by the cold French winters, the heady New Orleansian (not a real word I know but the best word to describe the atmosphere created here) temperatures, the torture of immortality and the pain of forbidden love. The first Anne Rice I ever read was 'Interview with a vampire' and I felt pity for Louis, loved his nostalgia and wished he'd grow up ...

I tell no fibs, honestly. Would I use a cheap trick like that? Following on from Interview with the Vampire, Anne Rice wrote The Vampire Lestat as the second part of The Vampire Chronicles. As a quick recap (but if you haven’t read Interview with the Vampire or seen the film, this will mean nothing to you!), Lestat was Louis’ creator in Interview with the Vampire and well, wasn’t considered to be a popular ‘vamp’ by Louis in his narration. Lestat was regarded by Louis, as a bit secretive fellow who wouldn’t tell of the vampire secrets that Louis new that he knew (if you see what I mean). Louis and Claudia ...

At once a sequel and a prequel to Interview with the Vampire, this fleshes out the charming, bloodthirsty Lestat. From a new perspective, Anne Rice develops her stories of the vampires that stalk the shadows. Again, they are shown as complicated characters, especially the anti-hero Lestat himself, with his talents and dreams. But his flamboyance attracts the attention of a creature of the night, who turns Lestat into an immortal vampire. From pre-Revolutionary France, to Egypt, to the modern US, Lestat plays out his ambitions and dreams of acclaim. Because this vampire wants not just blood, but admiration and love. Arrogant and ambitious, he disrupts a group of ...

Fascinating concept of religion, Descriptive None

I couldn't put this book down I didn't like Louis as a main character

follows on from the cliffhanger in Lestat. not the best of the series.


Entertaining & Quite Funny. Not Overly Addictive.

Insightful, well written, interesting. Some may not like the short story format.
