The Body Thief

The vampire Lestat bares his tormented soul in "The Tale of the Body Thief". He tires of life as a vampire and dreams about life as a human. When the opportunity arises, he trades his vampie body for a human body for a short term "human" experience. Lestate finds that life as a human is not at all as easy as he had imagined and things get complicated when he is unable to trade his body back to the vampire form.
The story is enthralling and fascinating and kept me at the edge of my chair, unable to put the book down. I felt for Lestat, his longings and need to be human, and was almost able to understand why he took the risk of trading his vampire body for a human one. But thinking about it logically, it was a very stupid thing he did and the consequences well deserved.
To me it is the best book from the Vampire Chronicles. Anne Rice has a very unique way to write and her eye for the smallest of details is amazing and brings life to the characters and the settings.

It's an odd one but, fills out nicely.

Lestat gets the chance of an (immortal) lifetime; to exchange bodies with a mortal for one night/day to experience what he's been longing for for decades.
After 24 hours, however, things...go wrong.

Lestat has to call up "old" friends - most of whom reject him - and try to get things back to "normal".

Also, David has a new outlook on life when all is said and done.


Better than Queen of the Damned but still just an OK read

This book was better than the horrible Queen of the Damned however it was not a great read itself. I found much of the book to be predictible and the end of the book to be completely pointless. Even with the predictiblity of this book at least it was not as BORING as Queen, I didn't think that book would ever end it was a miserable read for me.

Excellent book!

This was a great book from cover to cover. If you love Lestat like I do, you will thoroughly enjoy reading this. Action packed the whole way through!






Tale of the body theif

I wish that I could get all of Anne Rices books on the e-reader Kindell. I really like her writing.


Lestat, the vampire-hero, enchanter and seducer of mortals, speaks in the new book in the bestselling Vampire Chronicles that began with Interview with the Vampire and continued with The Vampire Lestat and The Queen of the Damned. For centuries Lestat has been a courted prince in the dark universe of the living dead. But now he is alone, and everything he has come to believe in is called into question. Soon he will embark on the most dangerous enterprise he has ever undertaken.
