About this listen
In a feat of virtuoso storytelling, Anne Rice unleashes Akasha, the queen of the damned, who has risen from a six-thousand-year sleep to let loose the powers of the night. Akasha has a marvelously devious plan to “save” mankind and destroy the vampire Lestat—in this extraordinarily sensual novel of the complex, erotic, electrifying world of the undead.
©1988 Anne Rice (P)2011 Random House AudioWhat the critics say
“Mesmerizing... a wonderful web of dark-side mythology.” (San Francisco Chronicle)
“With The Queen of the Damned, Anne Rice has created universes within universes, traveling back in time as far as ancient, pre-pyramidic Egypt and journeying from the frozen mountain peaks of Nepal to the crowded, sweating streets of southern Florida.” (Los Angeles Times)
“Imaginative... intelligently written... This is popular fiction of the highest order.” (USA Today)

Queen of the Damned
I like how the story of the original vampire is told. How each vampire has their own personality which is beautifully told.

Great story, but the accents, not so much
This story is excellent, but the actor reading it didn’t master the different accents needed for those characters, so much that it became a distraction.

Lestat's story makes so much sense
watching the movie first, I was not expecting the book to have such a difference. While I love the movie, the book has its own charm too. :)

Not as good as i remember
I read this series of books many years ago and decided to get back in to them since Anne Rice has started to write new books in the series, all i can say is that these books are not anywhere near as good as i remember them being.... The story felt rushed in places and the climax at the end was not worth all the hours i had to put in to get there.
