Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The bestselling Vampire Chronicles continue with an exhilarating tale of ruin and redemption.

Soon to be a major TV show, from the network behind The Walking Dead.

"When I found Rice's work I absolutely loved how she took that genre and (...) made it feel so contemporary and relevant" β€” Sarah Pinborough, bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes

"Rice wrote in the great tradition of the gothic" β€” Ramsey Campbell, bestselling author of The Hungry Moon

From internationally bestselling author and 'Queen of the Undead', Anne Rice.

The Vampire Chronicles continue with a riveting, rich sagaβ€”part adventure, part fairy taleβ€”of Prince Lestat and the story of how he came to rule the vampire world.

From his ancestral chateau high up in the mountains of France, Prince Lestat grapples to instil a new ideology of peace and harmony among the blood-drinking community.

Accustomed to welcoming the Undead from far and wide, one night he awakes to news of a ruthless attack by a group of maverick vampires.

After fleeing to investigate the terror, Lestat learns of several new enemies who are intent on disrupting the harmony he tries so hard to maintain. But is Lestat strong enough to take on such evil alone, or will sacrifices have to be made?

Will his cry for peace be heard in a world riddled with violence?
