    Actually the name Lestat was a typing error, Anne intended to name the character after her husband, so he was originally to be called "Lestan".

      I think it was actually one of many of his aliases. He had like a bunch Lestan Gregore was one...at first when I was reading the book I actually thought it was a type in the print. I don't think Rose knew his name was lestat at all until she found out the whole vampire stuff it mentions in the book she thought the vampire chronicles were some sort of fan fiction based on lestat or lestat living the part of the vampire mentioned in the books. Well that's what I gathered anyway. But yeah. I think I also heard the lestat typo mistake being printed early on.❤

    I hated the plot (basically it was a qotd 2.0) but the new characters are cool imo and it was amazing to see gabrielle again. also i don't like that the brat prince becomes the king of vampires 😔 if you like the ship lestat/louis you'll appreciate atlantis, their scenes are so cute (the only good thing in that book lmao)

    Anne had a crisis of faith between vampire books and returned to Christianity, declaring that she would only write for the Lord. She then failed to complete a trilogy about young Jesus, wrote two terrible books about a hitman who works for angels, wrote two equally awful werewolf books, then realized the same thing she realized decades earlier about the Catholic church, and then decided vampires were cool again.

    It was just a shitty ending for her and i think she should have been given a better death.

    I pretty much read it within the space of 3 days because I couldn't get enough of the fact not only was this a new entry in the series and well because I'm a huge Vampire Chronicles fan, there's definitely some welcome characters, Fareed and Seth, Gregory, that come back in this one like the musician Antoine from a brief appearance in the very first book, Magnus as a ghost with his human gifts and Allasandra who supposedly was dead and of course Teskhamen which was probably a life changer for Marius, thoroughly enjoyed it hands down with Lestat becoming the Prince of the the Vampires

    I'm not sure I'll ever get over how they chose Lestat, of all people, to be the leader. Just which book did they read to think he made good decisions? Lol.
    The ret-conning and out-of-character writing continue in the next two books. I'm looking forward to your review as things get even weirder, plot points are dropped, and characters are just written off.
