Reviews

Fantastic book!

"Absolutely love this book! I picked it up after watching the show and that could not have been a better choice, it's great having the source material to suppliment my newfound obsession."

Rowan (5/5)

The title of the book fits the story.

"I thought the book was very good. I fell in love with the characters, the plot was interesting, and it got me wanting more"

Jude (4/5)

A vampire’s story

"The first in a series of novels dealing with the vampire Lestat. This book is a great introduction to the realm that Anne Rice created."

Simba (5/5)

Missing pages!

"The book is missing a significant amount of pages. I was confused on why the story finished so abruptly and when I googled the summary of the story I realized a big chunk of the ending is missing!"

CheeMe (1/5)

Solid introduction to Anne Rice's work

"I grew up loving the Interview With a Vampire movie and only recently got into reading so I thought, why not give it a read and see how the book compares? I ended up really enjoying it! It may just be because I haven't watched the movie adaptation in a while, but I thought there was a lot of information you got in this story that was lost in the movie. The characters felt real and morally grey/dynamic whereas I don't recall the movie diving into that. The first 3rd was slow for me because I knew what was going to happen. Overall, I think this was a great introduction to Anne Rice's work and I can't wait to read the next book in the Vampire Chronicles series, The Vampire Lestat."

Interview withe vampire review

"À very good read, chilling and beautifully written, Anne rice is an incredible writer who describes everything in such a way that you can feel it, an incredible start to the vampire chronicles series that hooks you in and makes you yearn for more."

Niko (5/5)

If you’ve seen the film read this book!

"This book is fantastically written, clearly different from the film but adds so much more details and back stories"

ONoble (5/5)

An erotic tale with no dearth of intriguing characters

"Love this edition of the book, I searched far and wide to find a beautiful cover as I do want the series to be displayed on my bookshelves. Louis is at times, an insufferable narrator, but still remains captivating. The book was impossible to put down at times and I look forward to reading the remainder of the series."

TK (4/5)

Incredibly interesting title

"Great start to the journey of the Vampire Chronicles"

Stephen L. (4/5)

Pretty Good

"I have yet to finish this book but I like it so far. It’s an interesting premise and a classic for a reason."
