In Anne Rice's extraordinary fifth novel of "The Vampire Chronicles", irresistible antihero Lestat encounters his most dangerous adversary--the mysterious being Memnoch, who claims to be the Devil. Ushered through the realms of Heaven, Purgatory, and Hell, Lestat must finally decide if he can believe in the Devil or God--and which, if either, he will serve.

STARTLING. . . FIENDISH. . . MEMNOCH'S TALE IS COMPELLING.
--New York Daily News

Like Interview With the Vampire, Memnoch has a half-maddened, fever-pitch intensity. . . Narrated by Rice's most cherished character, the vampire Lestat, Memnoch tells a tale as old as Scripture's legends and as modern as today's religious strife.
--Rolling Stone

SHOCKING. . . A BRILLIANT BOOK.
--St. Louis Post Dispatch

Rice has penned an ambitious close to this long-running series, as well as a classy exit for a classic horror character. Fans will no doubt devour this last visit with Lestat.
--The Washington Post Book World

MEMNOCH THE DEVIL OFFERS PASSAGES OF POETIC BRILLIANCE.
--Playboy

[Memnoch] is one of Rice's most intriguing and sympathetic characters to date. . . Rice ups the ante, taking Lestat where few writers have ventured: into heaven and hell itself. She carries it off in top form.
--The Seattle Times

RICHLY DESCRIPTIVE. . . A HORRIFIC TOUR OF HELL.
--Kirkus Reviews (starred)
