Sinossi
È la solitudine la «maledizione» che si è impadronita di Lestat, bello, malinconico e crudele principe del cupo universo dei vampiri. Sulla dolorosa onda di quella solitudine, Lestat ha accarezzato un bruciante desiderio: rinascere come mortale, liberarsi della sua condizione di non morto e tornare a essere vivo... C'è qualcuno che può soddisfare quel desiderio: l'ammaliante Raglan James, il Ladro di Corpi, che da tempo insegue Lestat e che, a sua volta, ambisce a diventare vampiro. A nulla varrà l'avvertimento di David Talbot, l'unico amico «umano» di Lestat, e di altre creature della notte. Il patto sarà stipulato e avrà conseguenze oscure e maligne...

She's way too in love with her own writing at this point. Takes ten pages to describe the front of a mansion. In the words of the great Casey Kasem: Ponderous man, f'ing ponderous.
This book is very good . It is well written and packed of life reflections . There is no doubt that Anne Rice knows what she is doing.

• I thought that this is by far Anne Rice’s best description of Lestat’s true character. Everything he did in this book was exactly what I would expect someone who is supposed to be so selfish and evil to do. Throughout the rest of the books Rice tries so hard to tell you that Lestat is really not g Leggi tutto
I re-read this recently and was pleasantly surprised. I had remembered it as my least favorite of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. This time, I found it to be absolutely delightful. Lestat in all his rash bravado and David, his (far) better half on a thrilling adventure together.
3 Stars Review: I won't even do lists this time because I had the same likes and dislikes. The plot was slow ( really slow for a while in the beginning), the writing was a bit odd with the flashbacks and characters telling long stories to one another, but I'm invested in the characters, and that's why Leggi tutto
Leer sobre vampiros no es una nueva moda. Los vampiros no nacieron como una explosión de hormonas adolescentes, ni mucho menos del cine (aunque sea este el que nos haya dado las imágenes más vivas y majestuosas de ellos). Seguramente no muchos estuvieron de acuerdo con el ahora cliché del vampiro re Leggi tutto
The Tale of the Body Thief is the 4th book in the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. And it is by far the best one. Lestat is being followed. Everywhere he goes he senses that someone is watching him. He can’t shake it. Finally, his mysterious follower leaves him instructions to meet. Is it a trap? Is Leggi tutto
