mady2518 's review for:

The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice
3.0

The Vampire Lestat put An Interview With A Vampire to shame.

Lestat is a dynamic and turbulent character that commands the reader's attention. His perspectives on morality, immortality and nihilism are as intricate as they are insightful.

The text, as with many of Rice's novels, is rather slow. In many segments I found myself wading through trivial details hedging towards a plot point, yet skirting around any real developments.
