This book is #2 in Anne Rice's series of the Mayfair witches, and is the sequel to "The Witching Hour," which is in my opinion the best book she has ever written, and possibly one of the best fiction novels I have ever read. I am no Anne Rice fan, so please don't think I am gushing over her talents. I am begrudgingly admitting this, wishing it were any other author. "The Witching Hour (Book 1)" seriously rocks.

This book carries the story well from Book 1. It has a haunting storyline, so it has that same eerie hang-in-your-thoughts quality as the first book. However, please let me urge you, if you have read The Witching Hour and loved it, don't read this book. Do NOT read this book. Just close Book 1 and wonder; don't do it to yourself. Reading this book will make you read Book 3, and god help you when you read Book 3. I know I haven't been the same since.
