About this listen
Once an aristocrat in the heady days of pre-revolutionary France, now Lestat is a rockstar in the demonic, shimmering 1980s. He rushes through the centuries in search of others like him, seeking answers to the mystery of his terrifying exsitence. His story, the second volume in Anne Rice's best-selling Vampire Chronicles, is mesmerizing, passionate, and thrilling.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 274
We are in a small room with the vampire, face to face, as he speaks--as he pours out the hypnotic, shocking, moving, and erotically charged confessions of his first two hundred years as one of the living dead. . . He speaks quietly, plainly, even gently . . . carrying us back to the night when he departed human existence as heir--young, romantic, cultivated--to a great Louisiana plantation, and was inducted by the radiant and sinister Lestat into the other, the "endless," life....

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 188
Demonstrating once again her gift for spellbinding storytelling, Anne Rice makes real for us a great dynasty of four centuries of witches - a family given to poetry and incest, murder and philosophy, a family that over the ages is itself haunted by a powerful, dangerous, and seductive being called Lasher who haunts the Mayfair women. Moving in time from today's New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and the France of Louis XIV, from the coffee plantations of Port-au-Prince to Civil War New Orleans and back to today, Anne Rice has spun a mesmerizing tale.

Story4 out of 5 stars 3
In 1976, a uniquely seductive world of vampires was unveiled in the now-classic Interview with the Vampire ... in 1985, a wild and voluptuos voice spoke to us, telling the story of The Vampire Lestat. Anne Rice continues her extraordinary Vampire Chronicles in a feat of mesmeric storytelling, a chillingly hypnotic entertainment in which the oldest and most powerful forces of the night are unleashed on an unsuspecting world.

Good but not my favourite
I read this book many years ago, but this was my first time listening to it. I do wish that they had gotten an actual French person to narrate, as Lestat was French. I could listen to a real French accent allllllll day, it’s beautiful. This one sounds too much like a Count Dracula impersonation.
I also took a star off the story, just because it’s a bit verbose. I feel like it could have been written in half the number of words, without affecting the storyline or it’s presentation/impact at all

Awesome!!
Ive loved the Vampire Chronicles since I was a teenager, Lestat was always my favorite character, it was addictive to revisit the book again and the narrator was perfect for the book he made it even better than before, I recommend it to anyone who wants a real vampire book and not that poorly written Twilight bullshit

FANTASTIC
As beautiful as I remember with a perfectly haunting narration. His voice is coloured with more than one accent which compliments the book wonderfully.

Bloodsuckingly Good
Anne Rice has a way of pulling you in, and making you not like Lestat one moment and having sympathy for him the next. It was very fun to listen to, and couldn’t stop talking about it! I can’t wait to get into Queen Of The Damed.
