Publisher's Summary
In another feat of hypnotic storytelling, Anne Rice continues the extraordinary Vampire Chronicles that began with the now-classic Interview with the Vampire and continued with The Vampire Lestat and The Queen of the Damned.
Lestat speaks. Vampire-hero, enchanter, seducer of mortals - for centuries he has been a courted prince in the dark and flourishing universe of the living dead. Lestat is alone. And suddenly, all his vampire rationale - everything he has come to believe and feel safe with - is called into question. In his overwhelming need to destroy his doubts and his loneliness, Lestat embarks on the most dangerous enterprise he has undertaken in all the danger-haunted years of his long existence.
The Tale of the Body Thief is told with the unique - and mesmerizing - passion, power, color, and invention that distinguish the novels of Anne Rice.

A unique and fascinating book for almost anyone
When the movie interview with a vampire came out that is when I was exposed to the worlds of Anne Rice. And the movie was wonderful but the books are even better. This particular book is unique among her vampire chronicles. Although it is a very serious book there are parts of the story which are absolutely hilarious and really make you think of the practical differences between a vampire and human. It’s based on the life experiences of Lestat de Lioncourt, A Poor French nobleman’s Son; having been in the blood or turned into a vampire for about 200 years prior to the story. It is full of larger than life characters and a really interesting backdrop. Definitely well worth the read even if you don’t know anything about the vampire Chronicles. This book has something for everybody!

Incredible From Start to Finish
I enjoyed every second of this book; the story, the writing, Simon Vance’s narration and the voices he uses for each character - 10/10
