Interview with the Vampire is a good book and has interestin  things to say regarding spirituality and death, though despite it being the point, it's a bit too drawn out and ponderous, with Louis becoming extremely irritating and whingey toward the end. The atmosphere in the book is excellent and the writing is seductive - that being said the relationship between Claudia and Louis made me feel extremely uncomfortable at points.
Final thought is Lestat is a brilliant character and I wish there'd been more of him, which may motivate me to read more Lestat books in the overall series.
