Title: What happened to Lestat!?!?!
Review: I have read almost every one of Anne Rice's novels, and I have to say this is the worst one. Usually the language is poetic, yet forceful, and in this one, I thought Lestat seemed scattered and stupid. Suddenly, everything and everyone was "facinating". He talks like a 17-year old surfer, not a 200-year old well-read vampire. It almost seems like it was written by a different person. I can blame Anne Rice for some of it (though the story was good) but the editing was terrible (a slow downward trend has been noticeable for some time). Has she made so much money now that no one is going to tell her that she needs to FOCUS... not babble? Someone needed to take the fluff out of this book, but didn't.
Is the review positive or negative?
