Description

"STARTLING . . . FIENDISH . . . MEMNOCH'S TALE IS COMPELLING."
--New York Daily News

"Like Interview with the Vampire, Memnoch has a half-maddened, fever-pitch intensity. . . . Narrated by Rice's most cherished character, the vampire Lestat, Memnoch tells a tale as old as Scripture's legends and as modern as today's religious strife."
--Rolling Stone

"SENSUAL . . . BOLD, FAST-PACED."
--USA Today

"Rice has penned an ambitious close to this long-running series. . . . Fans will no doubt devour this."
--The Washington Post Book World

"MEMNOCH THE DEVIL OFFERS PASSAGES OF POETIC BRILLIANCE."
--Playboy

"[MEMNOCH] is one of Rice's most intriguing and sympathetic characters to date. . . . Rice ups the ante, taking Lestat where few writers have ventured: into heaven and hell itself. She carries it off in top form."
--The Seattle Times

  • Lestat as the bobble head Dante

    If you’re looking for a continuation of the vampire chronicles, stop and don’t read this horrid book. Rice takes the worn motifs from Dante to weave a story of Creation where Lestat, like the bobble head Dante, stands by and nods his head and listens and agrees with just about everything Virgil (recast as the Devil) says. It’s boring, tiresome, and a complete waste of time and energy. I can’t imagine what possessed her to write this or why ANYONE over the age of 12 would rate it more than 1 star.

    This book is awesome, u can get so caught up in it even though it's fiction she draws you soo in and begin to wonder what is right or unjust morally who will you side with. One of a very short list of my all time favorite books!!!!!!
