Great used paperback!
Merrick is truly excellent! The beloved vampires are back in a tale full of mysteries, seduction and interesting twists. Through David Talbot, Lestat's "youngest" fledgling, we are introduced to Merrick, a Mayfair witch & David's old lover. David seeks Merrick to help raise the spirit of Claudia, Lestat & Louis's vampire child. In the process, the tale travels back and forth ..the adventures of David and Merrick in those mysterious ruins, the green mask throught which one could see spirits .. and then, we have those familiar and engaging questioning of one's soul between Louis and David. I personally think David & Louis make a great pair. They are both sensitive, intelligent and ever wondering & questioning one's existence and survival, and whether true immortality exists. I think they learn from each other. The last few chapters of the novel is especially spellbinding... face-paced and keeping you wondering what will happen next. Two most wonderful things did happen: the waking of Lestat to the rescue of Louis, and the rebirth of Louis .. Now almost as strong as Lestat and David, yet still gentle and still-questioning. And of course, we are also warned to expect some clashes between our beloved vampires and the Talamasca ... Simply can't wait for the next tales. Love you, Anne. My fiance managed to be at one of your recent booksigning and got me a signed copy of the novel. Now I can pass the first one to a friend. I'm sure she'll enjoy it as much as I have.
