Servant of the Bones

By: Anne Rice

Narrated by: Michael Prichard

In a new and major novel, the creator of fantastic universes of vampires and witches takes us now into the world of Isaiah and Jeremiah and the destruction of Solomon's Temple, to tell the story of Azriel, Servant of the Bones.

He is ghost, genii, demon, angel - pure spirit made visible. He pours his heart out to us as he journeys from an ancient Babylon of royal plottings and religious upheavals to Europe of the Black Death and on to the modern world. There he finds himself, amidst the towers of Manhattan, in confrontation with his own human origins and the dark forces that have sought to condemn him to a life of evil and destruction.

l

it's a decent book

it's not a bad story, I just think that it's a little bit slow, and there's nothing really new or interesting about it. But then in the time it was written, it may have been a lot more new and interesting.

Lacking audio quality

Seemed like first part of reading was fine but lacking and maybe second half of the whole thing just lost quality and sounded like a recording of a tape playing I guess. Not what I’m used to in my audible acquisitions and experiences.

very good

I didn't not like anything. very good listening. recommended. Good Anne Rice tale. you should read

Monotone performance

Hard to tell if the story is good as the reader is so monotonous in his delivery I was fighting to pay attention to it.

Wonderful Story

Such a great story. It evokes all kinds of emotions and in the end teaches us that love is the most important thing in life

It's a bit of an old recording...

Despite the rough audio mix it's a compelling story. Azriel's tale keeps you engaged.

Imaginative plot, great characters.

This was a really good read. The characters were great and the story is hard to put down. Fast paced, a real page Turner.

favorite!

my absolute favorite anne rice story. narration was phenomenal. loved it! this is a book i can listen to or read over and over again.

Excellent reading of this tale!

This was an excellent reading. Michael Prichards voice is so soothing. It was narrated slowly but this gives the listeners more time to really absorb the story. Considering the weight of the tale, it's utterly appropriate. Would listen to this again.
