What a fantastic follow up to The Witching Hour! The story picks up right where it left off and delivers answers to all the questions left after book 1. Ann's writing style is like poetry and the narrator did a phenomenal job. Each character sounded distinct and believable and recording quality was clear and crisp. Trigger warning for sexual assault, underage sex, and incest. You've been warned ⚠️

Wondeful Story, Terrible Recording

I put this book off after feeling burnt out from the last 2 titles in the series (Memnoch & Body Thief). Those 2 were alright but not my favorites. I was worried the rest of The Vampire Chronicles might only get worse. I was very wrong! Merrick got me excited about the chronicles again and now I'm also interested in checking out The Mayfair Witches. This story was so good! David Talbot easily carried as the main character, which was another worry I had, and Merrick is a wondeful new character in the beautiful world Rice has created. Now as far as the recording goes, it's rough. It sounds like he recorded this book underwater! I had to turn my volume almost all the way up to listen. Such a shame considering the book is fantastic and his reading was great. It didn't ruin the experience, but none the less disappointing.

Overly religious side story

This book felt like a weird side story that had nothing to do with vampires. So insanely overly religious I felt like I was listening to a Bible story. Anne's take on the story of creation was interesting but felt so far removed from the previous books in the series. Also, I could hardly stand Lestat in this book. He just cries and whines the entire time and it felt nothing like the brat prince we've come to know and love. Definitely my least favorite of the series so far.

After struggling to finish the previous book, Memnoch The Devil, I was disappointed to discover this was a direct continuation of that story. Getting Armands back story and his time spent in Venice was lovely, but the religious overtones that drag on and on made it a difficult listen. If you're into Christianity you might not mind, but I didn't start reading a series about Vampires to delve into Christian lore. It's making me wonder if I want to even continue the series. The new narrator was jarring at first and took me some time to adjust. but I appreciate having a different voice since the POV has switched from Lestat to Armand.
