Blood Communion is the last book in the Vampire Chronicles and is a thrilling—if not bloody—fantasy rich in texture and full of surprises on every page. Lestat, The Brat Prince, has finally realized his dream of creating a haven for the undead by refurbishing his ancestral home high in the mountains of France. But just as Lestat’s dream of vampires living peacefully together begins, the ancient Rhoshamandes, who carries off Lestat’s closest family and friends, threatens everything. Only by offering himself to a monster can Lestat save those he loves. I’ve read and loved all of the Vampire Chronicle books, and this one did not disappoint. It was a fitting end to a stunning world of horror and passion. ( ) Maybe I'm over Anne Rice? (Is that possible?) But I couldn't wait to be done with this book. This is also the first time I've done Anne via audio book so maybe it was that but here's are my insights: 1. Lestat constantly names vampires around him 2. Major characters die off w/out much of a fan fare which then makes you suspect either she's really lost it OR they aren't dead 3. Major characters, who are again supposedly dead, one just keeps getting not mentioned when the two others are constantly mentioned 4. Lestat names the same vampires he's already named 3x and keeps describing their clothes 5. Lestat spends 15 minutes naming and describing clothes of vampires in a painting Oh, my, god this book was boring. And, I didn't feel like much happened at all. literally it was just a bunch of naming of vampires and talking about their fucking clothes. OH, and let's not forget that Pandora is now a battered woman who can't stand up for herself. /puke. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheChronik der Vampire (13)
In this spellbinding novel, Lestat, rebel outlaw, addresses the tribe of vampires, directly, intimately, passionately, and tells the mesmerizing story of the formation of the Blood Communion and how he became Prince of the vampire world, the true ruler of this vast realm, and how his vision for all the Children of the Universe to thrive as one, came to be. The tale spills from Lestat's heart, as he speaks first of his new existence as reigning monarch--and then of his fierce battle of wits and words with the mysterious Rhoshamandes, proud Child of the Millennia, reviled outcast for his senseless slaughter of the legendary ancient vampire Maharet, avowed enemy of Queen Akasha; Rhoshamandes, a demon spirit who refuses to live in harmony at the Court of Prince Lestat and threatens all that Lestat has dreamt of. As the tale unfolds, Lestat takes us from the towers and battlements of his ancestral castle in the snow-covered mountains of France to the verdant wilds of lush Louisiana with its lingering fragrances of magnolias and night jasmine; from the far reaches of the Pacific's untouched islands to the 18th-century city of St. Petersburg and the court of the Empress Catherine . . .
