The Tale of the Body Thief

The Vampire Chronicles, Book 4

De: Anne Rice

Narrado por: Simon Vance

In another feat of hypnotic storytelling, Anne Rice continues the extraordinary Vampire Chronicles that began with the now-classic Interview with the Vampire and continued with The Vampire Lestat and The Queen of the Damned.

Lestat speaks. Vampire-hero, enchanter, seducer of mortals - for centuries he has been a courted prince in the dark and flourishing universe of the living dead. Lestat is alone. And suddenly, all his vampire rationale - everything he has come to believe and feel safe with - is called into question. In his overwhelming need to destroy his doubts and his loneliness, Lestat embarks on the most dangerous enterprise he has undertaken in all the danger-haunted years of his long existence.

The Tale of the Body Thief is told with the unique - and mesmerizing - passion, power, color, and invention that distinguish the novels of Anne Rice.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Tinged with mystery, full of drama.... The story is involving, the twists surprising. " (People)

“Hypnotic...masterful.” (Cosmopolitan)

Holy Sh:#@ tbis is good

I read this when it first came out in 1992 and forgot how amazing it is.
it is in some ways my favorite of the chronicles but I say that every time I finish re-reading or liatening to one.
of course there's a difference between reading it in college in the 90s in my early 20s and having Simon Vance read it to me now in my late 40s. but it still gives me the same feeling of rich immersion that it always had.

pleasantly wonderful

Mr vance becomes the perfect story teller to bring this literary tale to life. It is an enjoyable work for a fan of the series.

Wonderful!

Narrated perfectly!!! I am so impressed with the performance and this book is amazing may be my fave of the series

Just a cool story

Lestat tells the story of something incredible that happened to him once. Cool sorry, great ending.

Unbelievable!

When there is a glimpse of redemption, the result of Lestat's actions destroys that hope. Which makes the tale(s) even more enticing! I applaude Anne Rice's intricate story line. Simon Vance is a spectacular narrator. He is extremely talented with numerous cultural inflections. That helps distinguish from one character to another. Bravo!

The new adventures of crazy Lestat lol

Surprisingly a good story full of twists and turns, Lestat, show a little more of his human side once again, Anne never disappoint for sure

Sumptuous and luxurious listen!

Love Anne Rice this is so “her” so decadent so beautifully read with all the accents

Fantastic exciting from start to finish

Would you listen to The Tale of the Body Thief again? Why?

Yes action from start to finish

What did you like best about this story?

First of all the narrator is out standing not a dual moment

Have you listened to any of Simon Vance’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

He was able to capture and separate each person

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Lestat is so sensitive

Any additional comments?

Great book worth every minute

Lestat.....

What can I say? It's Lestat. and finally David. The reader was talented with all the accents.

I am officially HOOKED!!

On to the next book in the series. Anne Rice does it like no other. I tried to listen to the Witching Hour but found myself hooked on the Vampire Chronicles. I'll go back to the Witching Hour after I am done with this series.
