:
”Ah, the taste and feel of blood when all passion and greed is sharpened in that one desire!”
Lestat: a vampire – but very much not the conventional undead, for Lestat is the truly alive.
Lestat is vivid, ecstatic, stagestruck, and in his extravagant story he plunges from the lasciviousness of eighteenth-century Paris to the demonic Egypt of prehistory; from fin-de-siecle New Orleans to the frenetic twentieth-century world of rock superstardom – as, pursued by the living and the dead, he searches across time for the secret of his own dark immortality.
***Soon to be a major TV show***
Also in the Vampire Chronicles:
Interview with the Vampire
