Sinossi
Si chiamava Thorne e da secoli dormiva in una caverna tra i ghiacci. Finché un giorno il suo sonno millenario fu lacerato da urla di orrore e di morte: si era risvegliata una regina che proclamava di racchiudere in sé il Sacro Nucleo della sua stirpe e aveva cominciato ad annientare tutti i bevitori di sangue della Terra. Thorne, grazie alle sue doti medianiche, avvertì le loro grida, attraverso i loro occhi vide la crudeltà con cui la malvagia creatura li eliminava e decise che era giunto il momento per lui di ritornare nel mondo. Doveva fermare quell'orrore, e per farlo doveva trovare lui, l'immortale. E lo incontrò in una fumosa taverna: Marius, antico mentore di Lestat e amante di Pandora, il vampiro che per secoli aveva protetto i Sacri Genitori della loro razza dannata, il solo in grado di spiegargli ogni cosa sin dall'inizio, benché sapesse che la conoscenza non avrebbe potuto, in ogni caso, garantirgli la salvezza'

Recensioni
Otro personaje entrañable que sin él no habría crónicas... Ese mundo de ser un patricio adinerado es muy interesante, y todavía más el conocer hasta el último detalle sobre este ser inmortal que se ha convertido en leyenda entre los menos poderosos. Me encanta que Anne nos traslade a hechos y momento Leggi tutto
The first Anne Rice book I read was The Mummy or Ramses the Damned . I was in the 8th grade. I loved it, and tried to read Interview with the Vampire but never finished it. Almost five years later, I was in Sestriere, Italy, a small mountain town outside of Torino, near the French and Swiss borders. I Leggi tutto
Shall I say Marius de Romanus is my new favorite vampire, in all of his oozing sensuality? Why, yes. Reading this book made me excited to reread The Vampire Chronicles. I have to admit, I actually found myself falling in love with Marius, or at least developing a crush on him, towards the end of the Leggi tutto
I'm kind of glad I waited more than a year to read this book after having read the first eight, plus the Mayfair Witches book all pretty much right in a row. I think I would have found the parts where Marius is retelling things that Lestat told us in The Vampire Lestat and that Armand told us in The Leggi tutto
Not the worst (see 'Memnoch' for that) but certainly the most boring of all the Chronicles so far. I pretty much gave up on the series after 'Queen', but since I bought the whole lot, I'm wading through it still. However, it took me this long to realise that the problem with Rice's writing is that t Leggi tutto
Boring to say the least. In this book we are told the story of Marius from his own lips as he explains it to a newly risen vampire named Thorne. His story was already captioned and a couple of the previous books. Perhaps I liked his story better as a caption instead of in full. Instead of wise he come Leggi tutto
Thorne, his long sleep interrupted by the waking and rampaging of the Vampire Queen Akasha, is now driven to find the one who made him, the one he saw in his visions – Maharet, one of the two oldest vampires in the world He emerges from his icy tomb to seek his own kind – and finds Marius, the Roman, Leggi tutto
I'm quite surprised at how mixed the reviews are here as I thought this was yet another winner from Anne Rice! Blood and Gold follows the history of Marius and his long and troubled existence as he travels and strives to keep his secret of 'Those Who Must be Kept' and forges relationships to keep hi Leggi tutto
