In this spellbinding book, Lestat, rebel outlaw, addresses the tribe of vampires, telling us the mesmerizing tale of how he became prince of the vampire globe, and of the forming of the Bloodstream Communion, and exactly how his vision for the kids of the Universe to thrive as you, came to be.

Lestat will take us from his ancestral castle in the snow-covered mountains of France towards the verdant wilds of lush Louisiana, using its lingering fragrances of magnolias and evening jasmine; in the far reaches of the Pacific’s untouched islands to the 18th-century town of St. Petersburg and the court from the Empress Catherine. He speaks of his brutal fight of wits and terms with the incomprehensible Rhoshamandes, proud Kid from the Millennia, reviled outcast for his senseless slaughter from the famous ancient vampire Maharet, avowed foe of Queen Akasha, who refuses to live in tranquility at court and who threatens all Lestat provides dreamt of .
