PS: If you are a fan of audiobooks, I recommend that you read the book while listening to the audio recordings narrated by "Simon Vance".The Tale of the Body Thief is a horror novel by American writer Anne Rice, the fourth in her The Vampire Chronicles series, following The Queen of the Damned (1988). I am intrigued and looking forward to seeing what will happen next!Īs always, a phenomenal story By Anne Rice.
There are a few chapters where I did not like the way things went and I wanted to change them, but after finishing the book I have come to terms with how the writer wanted them to go. In fact, time works to its advantage by hardening it. Catching the flue, or any type of virus for that matter, can quickly bring you down to your knees and leads to certain death if not addressed or treated hastily, unlike his immortal vampire granite-like vessel that can not be either damaged permanently or touched by disease shining ever so brightly like marble unaffected by the passage of time. This "sack of blood" as he describes it needs constant maintenance to sustain life. It actually made me think of my body in an entirely new way. It is filled with plot twists that stir all your emotions as well as a few new characters Lestat met during his brief stay within the constraints of a mortal body. Reading through this 4th book of the series felt rather unearthly, almost like an out-of-body experience.
