Featured in our reading guide: Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles in Order (and Where the Mayfair Witches Fit)
by Anne Rice
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 existence. His is a mesmerizing story - passionate, complex, and thrilling.
Anne Rice is the author of thirty-seven books, including the Vampire Chronicles, the Lives of the Mayfair Witches, and the Wolf Gift book series. Rice was born in New Orleans in 1941 and grew up there and in Texas. She lived in San Francisco with her husband, the poet and painter, Stan Rice until 1988, when they returned to New Orleans to live with their son, Christopher. In 2006, Rice moved to Rancho Mirage, California. She died in 2021.
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.
