Praise for The Vampire Lestat "Frightening, sensual . . . Anne Rice will live on through the ages of literature. . . . To read her is to become giddy as if spinning through the mind of time, to become lightheaded as if our blood is slowly being drained away."
--San Francisco Chronicle "Fiercely ambitious, nothing less than a complete unnatural history of vampires."
--The Village Voice "Brilliant . . . its undead characters are utterly alive."
--The New York Times Book Review "Luxuriantly created and richly told."
