this book tells us the story of how lestat de lioncourt fucks up ONCE AGAIN. because he never learns and decides to switch bodies with a man who is not planning to give him his VAMPIRE body back.

lestat constantly wants to fuck old man david talbot and since he likes him too much, he now starts being a very important character in the chronicles... personally i do not like david because he is boring but also now having read merrick, he disgusts me.

this is a fun book, silly and goofy but i want to warn some people that doesn't mean this doesn't have extremely dark parts.

TW: rape, physical abuse
chapter 11 contains a graphic scene of rape.
chapter 33 contains the depiction of physical abuse and forced turning to a vampire.
