    What a terrific book!
    I waited two years, that Italian publisher of Anne Rice’s novel decide to translate and publish Blood canticle. When I can’t see the light I decided to read it in English.
    At the beginning it was quite difficult, not only because It was in my mother tongue, but also because I didn’t find the same feelings I felt every time I read Anne Rice’s.
    It was around page 100 I found again the style of Anne I used to.
    the best it was when I read the last five page, literature: when Anne described the love between two of the characters of the novel, you can feel the same love, when a human being loose himself into another one.
    Using the words of another of one my favorite writers: "Sometimes the magic works".

    Stile barocco e avvincente, come sempre, in quello che, a detta dell'autrice, è l'ultimo capitolo delle cronache dei vampiri. Anne Rice ha ormai scelto una strada diversa ... ma non si può mai dire. Il finale è comunque aperto

  • Lestat de Lioncourt is always a very interesting and charming character, but the New Vampire Chronicles stories are getting weaker and weaker...

Fiery, fierce, and erotic, Blood Canticle marks the triumphant culmination of Anne Rice’s bestselling Vampire Chronicles, as Lestat tells his astounding tale of the pleasures and tortures that lie between death’s shadow and immortality. . . .

Surrounded by its brooding swampscape, Blackwood Farm is alive with the comings and goings of the bewitched and the bewitching. Among them is the ageless vampire Lestat, vainglorious enough to believe that he can become a saint, weak enough to fall impossibly in love.

Gripped by his unspeakable desire for the mortal Rowan Mayfair and taking the not so innocent, new-to-the-blood Mona Mayfair under his wing, Lestat braves the wrath of paterfamilias Julien Mayfair and ventures to a private island off the coast of Haiti. There, Saint Lestat will get his chance to slay his dragon. For Mona and the Mayfairs share an explosive, secret blood bond to another deathless species: a five-thousand-year-old race of Taltos, strangers held in the throes of evil itself.
