Book Description:
In the fifth Vampire Chronicle, Lestat is searching for Dora, the beautiful and charismatic mortal daughter of a drug lord. Dora has moved Lestat like no other mortal ever has, and he cannot get her out of his visions. At the same time, he is increasingly aware that the Devil knows who he is and wants something from him. While torn betwen his vampire world and his passion for Dora, Lestat is sucked in by Memnoch, who claims to be the Devil himself. Memnoch presents Lestat with unimagined opportunities: to witness creation, to visit purgatory, to be treated like a prophet. Lestat faces a choice between the Devil or God. Whom does he believe in? Who does he serve? What are the element of religious belief? Lestat finds himself caught in a whirlpool of the ultimate choice.

Another excellent chapter in the Vampire Chronicles. This book went in an entirely different direction. Lestat is contacted by the Devil! I will not give the whole thing away, but I love the ideology that Anne rice introduces into her world with this one. The ideas presented about God, Satan, Heaven and Hell are very interesting. I really enjoyed the break from monotonous Christian mythology. There is a wonderful mix of heresy and blasphemy in it all. 5 stars.

This is where the series really starts getting old! I think this is where I lost interest.

Jennifer C. (I liked this book just fine, although it wasn't one of my favorites from the series. It had way too many religious aspects. My fiancee loved this book, and it happens to be his favorite amoungst the series.
