By Anne Rice.

A reporter's life is forever changed on the night that he hears the life story of Louis de Pointe du Lac, a mysterious man with mesmerizing eyes, a man with a supernatural, otherworldly presence, a man who is no man at all but rather a 200-year old vampire!

This is the first book in author Anne Rice's VAMPIRE CHRONICLES, an epic, sweeping story of the immortals that have walked the earth for centuries as dark gods that live in the shadows and stalk the night.

This is the tale that introduces the world to Louis, Claudia, Armand, and, of course, the Brat Prince himself - Lestat de Lioncourt.

Hardcover, 372 pages, Text Only.

NOTE: "The Vampire Chronicles are absolutely the best novel series featuring the Children of the Night in the history of literature." - Odinson, mycomicshop.com Archivist
