The Vampire Chronicles: The Tale of the Body Thief

Having long been a courted prince in the dark and flourishing universe of the living dead, Lestat (vampire hero, enchanter, seducer of mortals) is now alone and the burden of immortality is weighing upon him.  In a desperate bid to end his everlasting life he attempts suicide by flying into the sunrise above the Gobi desert . . .    

A feat of hypnotic storytelling, The Tale of the Body Thief is told with the uniquely mesmerizing, passion, power, color, and invention that has become a distinct marker throughout the novels of Anne Rice, making it as rich, violent, and sensual as the runaway bestsellers that preceded it.

"The story is involving, the twists surprising, The Tale of the Body Thief is tinged with mystery and full of drama.”--  People
