I like the period setting. I enjoyed the details of the framework more than the story itself.

I find that the one-offs Rice has written about the vampires not central to the Vampire Chronicles, are my favorites.

so good. wish it was longer. makes me sad not all the vampire chronicles are like this. such an interesting setting, really love pandora. marius still sucks but Pandora is a queen. just a solid book. would recommend this over the main vampire chronicles any day. reading this evokes the same emotion in me as the song She Took My Soul in Istanbul by Marc Almond. hope that makes sense.

This book was okay. I didn't really understand the point of it.
