Publisher's Summary:
The ninth novel in Anne Rice's best-selling Vampire Chronicles. Mystery and magic combine in this masterpiece from the mistress of the vampire genre.
A terrifying drama of bloodlust and betrayal is unravelling within the Blackwood Farm family. Their grand Southern mansion, set among dark cypress swamps in Louisiana, harbours terrible blood-stained secrets.
Heir to them all is the young, rash and beautiful Quinn Blackwood. But he is being controlled an evil spirit, a demon who could destroy him and others. Only the unearthly power of the vampire Lestat, combined with the earthly powers of the ubiquitous Mayfair witch clan, can save Quinn from himself and rescue the doomed girl he loves from her own mortality.
Shocking, savage and richly erotic, this novel brings us Anne Rice at her most powerfully disturbing. Here are vampire and witches, men and women, demons and doppelgangers, caught up in a maelstrom of death and destruction, blood and fire, cruelty and fate.

This is where I gave up on the series
The first few of the series were amazing, then they moved into a mixture of bad and ok, but I kept reading because I wanted to finish the series. This is the book where I gave up though. I don't know what this is or why it is published. It just goes on and on and very little happens, and there is not a single interesting sentence in the whole book. I got as far as page 267.
I can't even tell you what the plot is about because it's so boring it wouldn't make an impression on fresh snow, much less my memory. It's apparently someone on a farm telling Lestat about their imaginary friend.
Always the best
As always, Anne Rice creates a world you donât want to leave. Her characters jump off the page and live with you. Even though Lestat is marginalized in this book I understand she canât always write about Louise and Lestat. Her imagination is too complex to restrict to our individual preferences. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Faulkner and Charles Dickens have been favorites of mine since I was a very young man. Mrs. Rice joined their ranks many years ago. I am thankful for every sentence she gives and I always regret finishing one of her books. I need to take a sabbatical afterwards since it takes me time to settle for less than she offers.

Even though this was more story and less vampire stuff I somehow really enjoyed it. It had been some time since last reading an Anne Rice novel so maybe I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't more in the way of vampire things going on. I hope the next in the series gets back to vampires being vampires. With that said the story read well and I really did enjoy it.
Anne Rice is my favorite writer hands down....I have them al
