Title: Hardly A Worthy Exit For Lestat
Product review: Let me first say that I love Anne Rice's novels. But that is not blind love. I hated this book. First, it is badly paced. The whole story was too lose. Second, I didn't recognize Lestat at all. This is not the Lestat I have come to know. Thirdly, I had to hack through the pretentions in this book with a machete. I know that Mrs. Rice has a flourish style to her prose, but it makes me wonder whether if she is getting her money's worth out of her editor. It also makes me wonder if all that overly elborate prose was used to cover up the fact that there was no true story here. Finally, (and most importantly) this book was flat and boring. If any of you want to read Anne Rice at her best, go back to the first two books of the Vampire Chronicles. Stay away from this one.
