Advantages: it s a fangtastic read!!

Disadvantages: none

I have been following Anne Rice’s vampire novels for a couple of years now, and in all honesty I can say they are the best set of books I have ever read.

Vittorio is her second to most recent vampire novel to date, and takes on a new direction to the others in that it introduces a completely new character who has little or no links to the other vampires we have grown to love in Anne rice novels.

The story begins with the death of Vittorio's family and friends in a huge massacre at his home, a Tuscan palazzo of which he is sole survivor. He decides to seek out revenge on those who killed his brother in front of his very eyes. What he finds is a group of violent and deadly vampires one of whom he falls deeply but dangerously in love with.

This novel is different to the other vampire chronicles, but that is not to say that it is not brilliant. Rice develops her novels on bases of history and knowledge of certain times and places which deepens and distinguishes her novels from other vampire trash.

This novel has art, intrigue, romance, history, character, passion but above all vampires!!! Something for every type of nocturnal being.
