scottlukaswilliams 's review for:
Memnoch the Devil
by Anne Rice
Anne Rice has said that this is her favourite of the Vampire Chronicles and it has sometimes been mine as well. I enjoy Memnoch's explanation of cosmology and this is the first telling of the Christian mythology that has seemed in any way logical to me. The way Rice describes the father/son/holy ghost finally made some sense. It's a compelling read even to someone like myself who's an atheist.
This business of capitalizing pronouns when referring to "God" is distracting to me. I frequently stumble over it thinking a new sentence is beginning. It happens so frequently in this book that it became somewhat frustrating.
After the despicable acts Lestat commits in The Tale of the Body Thief I like that Rice puts him through his paces in this volume. He is humbled and one really feels a difference in his character.
