Blood Canticle

The Vampire Chronicles

De: Anne Rice

Narrado por: David Pittu

Anne Rice continues her astonishing Vampire Chronicles in a new novel that begins where Blackwood Farm left off—and tells the story of Lestat’s quest for redemption, goodness, and the love of Rowan Mayfair.

Welcome back to Blackwood Farm. Here are all of the brilliantly conceived characters that make up the two worlds of vampires and witches: Mona Mayfair, who’s come to the farm to die and is brought into the realm of the undead; her uncle, Julian Mayfair, guardian of the family, determined to forever torment Lestat for what he has done to Mona; Rowan Mayfair, brilliant neurosurgeon and witch, who finds herself dangerously drawn to the all-powerful Lestat; her husband, Michael Curry, hero of the Mayfair Chronicles, who seeks Lestat’s help with the temporary madness of his wife; Ash Templeton, a 5,000-year-old Taltos who has taken Mona’s child; and Patsy, the country-western singer, who returns to avenge her death at the hands of her son, Quinn Blackwood. Delightfully, at the book’s centre is the Vampire Lestat, once the epitome of evil, now pursuing the transformation set in motion with Memnoch the Devil. He struggles with his vampirism and yearns for goodness, purity and love, as he saves Patsy’s ghost from the dark realm of the Earthbound, uncovers the mystery of the Taltos and unselfishly decides the fate of his beloved Rowan Mayfair.

A story of love and loyalty, of the search for passion and promise, Blood Canticle is Anne Rice at her finest.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Writing as if her blood-inked quill were afire, Rice seems truly possessed by her Brat Prince of darkness as she races through the story." -- Publishers Weekly

Great book

The book and performance are great but there are a few random silences probably from editing.

Blood Canticle

I'm a big Anne Rice fan but for some reason I can't seem to get into her audio version of the books. The charactors seem to loose something for me. Not to mention I did not really like the reader too much on this one.

Good but bad timing

The speaker was excellent, but the timing and length of the chapters was off which was a bummer.

Not the Lestat I wanted to see

in the close of the Body Thief Lestat bites Davild Talbert and it reminder us how evil Lestat can be. Here ihe is kind, generous and in love. its as if all the time he spend alseep after Mednock and Merrick he was soul searching..... im not sawing the he can not change his mind but i just wasnt expecting that.

Pretty Good Blending of Both Series

Not as good as some of her books, but enjoyable. narrator was really good. Looking forward the the next pne.

Excellent read!

Love the continued convergence of of the Mayfair Witches, Blackwood farm and the vampire chronicles. So good!

Mona Mayfair is incredible

As always, I loved it...give me more...Already downloaded the next book...Can't wait to start it....

Blood Canticle

Blood Canticle is the first book written from Lestats view point in a long time. If you liked Blackwood Farm you will love this book. Tarquin Blackwood , Mona Mayfair, and Lestat have interesting adventures.
