Rated 2 of 5 of 5 by meagan
i have been a die-hard fan of anne rice for a long, long time. unfortunately, i was very dissapointed with her latest novel. i feel this book greatly contradicts the previously defined powers of vampires and their even remote possibility of reviving Louis, a weak vampire anyway. it's all great and dandy, isn't it? all happy <<edited for possible plot spoiler content>>. the only truely captivating scene of this book was the communication with bitter Claidia.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by keza

i loved the book but then agian i love all of anne rice's books. Anne Rice is a mastermind in intertwining the occult and christianity in a suductive series within a series. any one who doesnt love this book is insane

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by merrick
i thought that this book was excellent, aside from the fact that the main character has the same ame as my own. Merrick is sensaional new character and I can wait to hear more about her in rice's future novels.

Rated 4 of 5 of 5 by Anonymous
For those who have read both of Rice's Vampire Chronicles and Tales of the Mayfair Witches there are some subtle threads in Merrick that can be appreciated. The book, though an entertaining story seemed to be a required step or prelude to what is to come. The pages are infused with emotion and filgree language as is Rice's custom. The ending is something of a cliffhanger. I personally enjoyed and am excited to read the next book (which I believe is entitled Blood and Gold).
