Descriere

The vampire world is in crisis - their kind have been proliferating out of control and, thanks to technologies undreamed of in previous centuries, they can communicate as never before. Roused from their earth-bound slumber, ancient ones are in thrall to the Voice: which commands that they burn fledgling vampires in cities from Paris to Mumbai, Hong Kong to Kyoto and San Francisco. Immolations, huge massacres, have commenced all over the world.
Who - or what - is the Voice? What does it desire, and why?
There is only one vampire, only one blood drinker, truly known to the entire world of the Undead.

Will the dazzling hero-wanderer, the dangerous rebel-outlaw Lestat heed the call to unite the Children of Darkness as they face this new twilight?
Anne Rice's epic, luxuriant, fiercely ambitious new novel brings together all the worlds and beings of the legendary Vampire Chronicles, from present-day New York and Ancient Egypt to fourth-century Carthage and Renaissance Venice; from Louis de Pointe du Lac; Armand the eternally young; Mekare and Maharet; to Pandora and Flavius; David Talbot, vampire and ultimate fixer from the Secret Talamasca; and Marius, the true child of the Millennia. It also introduces many other seductive supernatural creatures, and heralds significant new blood.

Recenzii

Praise for Anne Rice's
PRINCE LESTAT
"[Rice] retakes her throne as Queen of the Damned . . . visceral and gritty . . . ["Prince Lestat"] infuses new life into the Vampire Chronicles and sets the stage for a new era.
-Elise de los Santos, "Chicago RedEye"
"No one does what Anne Rice does . . . Not only does she find ways--brilliant ways--to tease new narrative potential from old stories, she does so while acknowledging that those stories are already part of the other characters' psyches. I don't know of any other novelist doing that . . . she has not lost any of her flair for description, allowing us to experience the world the way her vampires do, with the sensory volume turned up to 11 . . . fun, sexy, and irresistible."
-"January Magazine"
"Irrepressively seductive."
-John Russell, "Next Magazine"
"Bloody marvelous . . . "Prince Lestat" is saving the undead from banality and overfamiliarity."
-Daniel D'Addario, "Time"
"Chilling."
-"Us Magazine"
"Anne Rice reminds us just how immense and rich with history her universe of poetic, morally questioning vampires is, and "Prince Lestat" serves as a palate cleanser to the hormone-soaked teen dramas of the past few years. It's nice to have a real grown-up back in the game."
-Cotton Codinha, "Elle"
"Ambitious...Rice never lost touch with the exuberant, often witty, and always fearless voice of irrepressible vampire Lestat de Lioncourt... Rice has offered us a tale of tremendous ambition, and she's absolutely delivered."
-Matthew Jackson, "BookPage"
