AnneRice.Com: The Vampire Lestat Breaking the vampire code of silence, Lestat reveals himself to the world in the hopes that the world's immortals will rise and join together to solve the mystery of their, and his, existence. Lestat circles Europe searching for his origins, and for clues to the birth of the vampire, but he finds that the seminal answers elude him. Through his travels and searches, Lestat also makes enemies of vampires who are terrified that his wanderings and searchings will disrupt their coexistence with mortals, or that he will attempt to rule them all. www.annerice.com /bs_b_TheVampireLestat.htm   (299 words)

The Vampire Lestat Lestat soon learns she has dangerous intentions of making all out war against humans and he vows to stop her by trying to make mortals aware of the vampiric threat so that they can be prepared for her assault. Lestat also "inherits" the accumulated wealth of the vampire who transforms him and his wealth only continues to grow, as does the material wealth of most of the novel's other vampire characters, due in part to their longevity and to the emerging capitalist system. Lestat relates, "The taste of blood and the feel of blood, and what it meant for all passion, all greed, to be sharpened in that one desire, and that one desire to be satisfied over and over with the feeding and the death" (156). www.cyberpat.com /shirlsite/essays/lestat.html   (7241 words)

The Vampire Lestat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Vampire Lestat is a novel by Anne Rice, and the second in her Vampire Chronicles, following Interview with the Vampire.

Lestat explains that as a young man of 20 years, he was a rebellious and frustrated youth, the youngest son of the Marquis d'Auvergne, and the sole provider of meat for his family's table. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/The_Vampire_Lestat   (805 words)

boekverslag The vampire Lestat door Anne Rice | scholieren.com Lestat asked why they had to laugh and they explained that there was a figure in a book that had exactly the same name as Lestat and whom was also a vampire.

The Vampire Lestat With the same richness of drama, atmosphere and incident, she tells the fantastic story of the vampire Lestat, whom we first perceived as the seductive devil-vampire of Interview with the Vampire and whom we now follow through the ages as he searches for the origin and meaning of his own dark immortality. As the novel opens, Lestat, having risen from the earth after a fifty-five years sleep, and infatuated with the modern world, presents himself in all his vampire brilliance as a rock star, a superstar, a seducer of millions. Of all the Vampire Chronicles, The Vampire Lestat was the most difficult for me in every respect, but it is interesting to me now - in fact, more than interesting - that many readers say that this book is their favourite of all the Chronicles. pepperpot-productions.com /theatredesvampires/html/vampirelestat.html   (1721 words)

Amazon.ca: The Vampire Lestat: Books: Anne Rice   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16) After the spectacular debut of Interview with the Vampire in 1976, Anne Rice put aside her vampires to explore other literary interests--Italian castrati in Cry to Heaven and the Free People of Color in The Feast of All Saints. The remainder of the novel purports to be that autobiography: the vampire traces his mortal youth as the son of a marquis in pre-Revolutionary France, his initiation into vampirism at the hands of Magnus, and his quest for the ultimate origins of his undead species. The character of Lestat is one of Rice's most complex and popular literary alter egos, and his Faustian strivings have a mythopoeic resonance that links the novel to a grand tradition of spiritual and supernatural fiction. www.amazon.ca /Vampire-Lestat-Anne-Rice/dp/0345313860   (1062 words)

Vampire Lestat, The - Anne Rice - Review - Love at first bite... The vampire novels are just great in their fascinating descriptions of dark beauty, Anne Rice's vampires aren't just scary evil creatures, they're stunningly attractive, clever, sometimes even comical. The vampire chronicles aren't mere horror stories, they can be highly philosophical circling around questions of life, death, good, evil, heaven and hell. Lestat does away with the rather unflattering portrait given of him by his fledgling Louis in "Interview with the vampire", the first volume of the chronicles. www.dooyoo.co.uk /printed-books/vampire-lestat-the-anne-rice/149324   (472 words)

Amazon.com: The Vampire Lestat (Vampire Chronicles, Book II): Books: Anne Rice   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16) Suffice to say that, in the first person, we meet Lestat, the teenaged son of an impoverished 18th-century nobleman, whose life is at best cold and harsh, at worst, a constant battle with cruelty of every sort for one's mere survival. Lestat, in Louis' personal account (in "Interview with the Vampire"), is arrogant, materialistic, calculating and callous. Lestat is also better able to describe the astonishing grace and unimaginable horror of being a vampire; lending benevolent explanation to some of the events in "Interview with the Vampire" that seemed so viciously heinous to Louis and Claudia. www.amazon.com /Vampire-Lestat-Chronicles-Book-II/dp/0345313860   (1890 words)

Bite me Magazine - Films and Books His story tells how they made an orphan become a vampire child, doomed to be imprisoned in her small weak body for eternity. Only a few chapters from the book were omitted and the ending was changed to encourage a sequel, but all in all the result was stunning, leaving the viewer emotionally charged and entranced. The film which introduced a new generation to vampire films by virtue of it's spin off series remains sharp, funny and polished, if not as achingly hip as the television version. www.bitememagazine.com /films-books.html   (1100 words)

The Vampire Lestat (John's Book Pages)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16) The Vampire Lestat is the second in Anne Rice's series of vampire books; Lestat is a powerful and obnoxious vampire created in pre-revolutionary France. This leads to another gripe -- the last chapters of The Vampire Lestat are logically part of Queen of the Damned; they don't fit in well, and create an annoying cliffhanger ending. That said, I love the idea of a vampire rock star and wouldn't be surprised if that were the image that inspired the whole series. books.regehr.org /reviews/vampirelestat.html   (203 words)

Rambles: Anne Rice, The Vampire Lestat   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16) The Vampire Lestat is not only one of the most engaging, remarkable, illuminating and important horror novels ever written, it is a beautiful work of art that stands proudly among the ranks of what I define as great literature. It was the story of Claudia the vampire child that touched my heart in the first novel, although the moral and philosophical questions asked by Louis opened the door for a new kind of vampire literature. The cold and inscrutable Lestat we saw in Interview is now revealed to be at one time the most human of vampires, an immortal whose love for humans exceeded even that of his creation Louis. www.rambles.net /rice_vamplestat85.html   (657 words)

'Vampire Lestat, The' by Anne Rice (1985)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16) Lestat is a creature of the darkest and richest imagination. Within these books, there is not much on lesbian vampires though (obviously not that fascinating to the straight female author), but we're rewarded with the first (to my knowledge) description of a vampire (Lestat) feasting on menstruation blood ;-) (I've been waiting for this for years).. Lestat definitely seems more gay, you could only just get away with saying that the first book was just passionate, but this one, now with added kissing, is just queer. www.queerhorror.com /Qvamp/items/54.html   (553 words)

The Vampire Lestat In the early pages of The Vampire Lestat, Lestat himself is handed a copy of Interview with the Vampire, which he reads a number of times, then destroys utterly. Nine years after she virtually created the modern vampire novel, she drops what can only be described as a bombshell—twice as long as Interview with a Vampire and many times wider in scope, it carries intricate histories of both individual vampires and the species itself. In his book he reveals the names and histories of powerful ancient vampires right back to the mother and father of the species, who naturally are more than interested in what he is doing. meltingpot.fortunecity.com /east/234/bookshelf/lestat.html   (299 words)

The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice « Red Koi Reviews I read ‘Interview with the Vampire’ by Anne Rice years ago, and thought I’d read it again a few months ago. It’s a great, dark, mythical tale that delves into the ancient past of vampires, but it’s main strength is the vivid character development of the various vampires. Having said that, Lestat is an almost entirely different character in this book to the Lestat we grew to hate in ‘Interview with the Vampire’. redkoireviews.wordpress.com /2006/05/24/the-vampire-lestat-by-anne-rice   (252 words)
