recommend this book
The story begins in our own time with Lestat, tall, blond, and handsome, a world-renowned rock star. His gifts are timeless, his youth never withers. But he was not always the powerful and famous child of darkness. Before his long earth-encrusted sleep, he was an aristocrat in the heady days of pre-Revolutionary France. It was then that he came face-to-face with the incarnation of evil and the temptations of love that he has ravenously pursued through time. Where it has led him and what he has become is the heart of the tale that has captured millions of readers.

About the Author
What people are saying
Just a wholesome, good person that loves philosophy and video games. A Man Chooses, A Slave Obeys.
So with the actor in mind from Queen of the Damned who played Lestat I enjoyed this awesome vampire tale so damn much more. Listen to The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice on Audible. https://t.co/09dYK2LnWw

The Vampire Lestat had a certain preference for menstrual blood which would allow him to feed without taking human life. Looks like Anne Rice was way ahead of her time. https://t.co/TighdIoLLC
Senior Talamasca scholar studying Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe. Since the 90s, crossing her heart that Lestat de Lioncourt makes her a vampire any day now.
Anne wanted to start the show w Lestat’s history/POV so I think @IWTVWriters will focus on that in S2. “We do want to start with the second book in the series, The Vampire Lestat. We want to start with him and his birth as a vampire, and go on from there.” https://t.co/kuV6PgCTHD
